2016年11月1日 · Here we used high resolution immunocytochemistry to localize OMP in the rat vomeronasal organ (VNO). Immunofluorescence for OMP was abundant in cilia and in apical dendrites of sensory cells, mostly associated with intraepithelial capillaries.
Olfactory marker protein expression in the vomeronasal …
2011年2月23日 · In this study, we examine the expression of olfactory marker protein (OMP), a neuronal marker of terminally differentiated olfactory or vomeronasal receptor neurons (Farbman, 1980; Farbman and Margolis, 1980, Weiler and Benali, 2005), in …
Histological evaluation of the alpaca (Vicugna pacos ... - PubMed
2024年3月24日 · OMP was identified in receptor cells of the vomeronasal sensory epithelium (VSE), while PGP 9.5 and PLC-β2 were localized in both the VSE and vomeronasal non-sensory epithelium. Collectively, these results suggested that the alpaca VNO possesses SCCs and olfactory receptor cells, which recognize both harmful substances and pheromones.
Molecular and neuronal homology between the olfactory systems …
2015年6月25日 · Studies of the two major olfactory organs of rodents, the olfactory mucosa (OM) and the vomeronasal organ (VNO), unraveled the molecular basis of smell in vertebrates. However, some vertebrates...
Histological and Immunohistochemical Characterization of …
OMP has a crucial role in neuronal functionality and nervous signal transmission , and thus a reduction of this protein could also suggest a VNO dysfunction. However, our results showed only a weak statistical difference, therefore, their interpretation should be taken with prudence.
Histological and Immunohistochemical Characterization of …
2021年4月22日 · The vomeronasal organ (VNO) plays a crucial role in animal behavior since it is responsible for semiochemical detection and, thus, for intra- and interspecific chemical communication, through the vomeronasal sensory epithelium (VNSE), composed of bipolar sensory neurons. This study aimed to explore …

Here we used high resolution immunocytochemistry to localize OMP in the rat vomeronasal organ (VNO). Immunofluorescence for OMP was abundant in cilia and in apical dendrites of sensory cells, mostly associated with intraepithelial capillaries.
Expression of ANO 1 and ANO 2 in the vomeronasal organ (VNO) …
The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a chemosensory organ specialized in pheromone detection that shows a broad morphofunctional and genomic diversity among mammals. However,...

Vomeronasal organ detects odorants in absence of signaling
2003年3月31日 · Here we report that AC3 −/− mice are able to detect certain volatile odorants via the VNO. These same odorants elicited electro-olfactogram transients in the VNO and MOE of wild-type mice, but...
