Chemosensory recognition of olfactory individuality.
Body odors regulate social, sexual and endocrine responses of many species. Specialized structures have evolved to produce and detect odorous signals. Individual identity, often communicated through body odor, can be critical in mate choice, incest avoidance, parental care and other inter-individual interactions. Because of the importance of individual identity, particularly among social specie...
متن کاملChemosensory convergence on primary olfactory cortex.
Food perception and preference formation relies on the ability to combine information from both the taste and olfactory systems. Accordingly, psychophysical investigations in humans and behavioral work in animals has shown that the taste system plays an integral role in odor processing. However, the neural basis for the influence of taste (gustation) on odor (olfaction) remains essentially unkn...
متن کاملOlfactory receptors in non-chemosensory tissues
Olfactory receptors (ORs) detect volatile chemicals that lead to the initial perception of smell in the brain. The olfactory receptor (OR) is the first protein that recognizes odorants in the olfactory signal pathway and it is present in over 1,000 genes in mice. It is also the largest member of the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Most ORs are extensively expressed in the nasal olfactory e...
متن کاملIndividuality-preserving Silhouette Extraction for Gait Recognition
Most gait recognition approaches rely on silhouette-based representations due to high recognition accuracy and computational efficiency, and a key problem for those approaches is how to accurately extract individualitypreserved silhouettes from real scenes, where foreground colors may be similar to background colors and the background is cluttered. We therefore propose a method of individuality...
متن کاملTrigeminal and olfactory chemosensory impact of selected terpenes.
In Experiment 1, four normosmics and four anosmics (three congenital, one idiopathic) provided odor and nasal pungency thresholds, respectively, for the following terpenes: delta3-carene, p-cymene, linalool, 1.8-cineole, and geraniol, plus the structurally related compound cumene. Additionally, all subjects provided nasal localization (i.e., right/left) and eye irritation thresholis. Trigeminal...
