This study shows that HP1β regulates olfactory receptor choice and neuronal identity in mice by modulating H3K9me3 levels and chromatin structure, leading to changes in OR expression patterns and reduced receptor diversity.

This study shows that Mex3a regulates neuronal differentiation by controlling translation and trafficking of cell surface proteins, cilia structure, and planar cell polarity in olfactory sensory neurons.

This study identifies Sulf1/2 as a key inhibitor of oligodendrocyte progenitor cell recruitment and remyelination in chronic demyelination, showing that sulfatase inhibition can enhance remyelination.

This study identifies nuclear architecture disruption as a mechanism underlying SARS-CoV-2 induced anosmia by analyzing human and hamster olfactory tissues.
