Transcription Factor 4 (TCF4) has been associated with autism, schizophrenia, and other
neuropsychiatric disorders. However, how pathological TCF4 mutations affect the human …

10.7554/eLife.21476.001 The mouse olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) repertoire is composed
of 10 million cells and each expresses one olfactory receptor (OR) gene from a pool of …

The sense of smell helps us navigate the environment, but its molecular architecture and
underlying logic remain understudied. The spatial location of odorant receptor genes (Olfrs) in …

Rodents, along with numerous other mammals, heavily depend on olfactory cues to navigate
their social interactions. Processing of olfactory sensory inputs is mediated by conserved …

The internal representation of sensory information via coherent activation of specific pathways
in the nervous system is key to appropriate behavioral responses. Little is known about …

Background Olfaction is a fundamental sense through which most animals perceive the
external world. The olfactory system detects odors via specialized sensory organs such as the …

Behaviors are shaped by hormones, which may act either by changing brain circuits or by
modifying sensory detection of relevant cues. Pup-directed behaviors have been previously …

The nervous system is organized to detect, internally represent and process sensory
information to generate appropriate behaviors. Despite the crucial importance of odors that elicit …

Olfaction is a fundamental sense in most animal species. In mammals, the olfactory system
comprises several subpopulations of sensory neurons located throughout the nasal cavity, …

Early exposure of does to sexually active bucks triggers early puberty onset correlating with
neuroendocrine changes. However, the sensory pathways that are stimulated by the male …
