The paper identifies distinct neurotransmitter release strategies in two closely related dopaminergic neuron subclasses in the mouse olfactory bulb, showing that anaxonic neurons release from dendrites while axon-bearing neurons release from myelinated axons, with functional implications for self-inhibition.

This study examines the functional maturation and experience-dependent plasticity of adult-born dopaminergic neurons in the olfactory bulb of mice, finding they rapidly acquire mature properties and show limited plasticity.

This study shows that presynaptic terminals in regenerating axons rapidly mature functionally after re-contact, becoming indistinguishable from controls within a week.

The paper identifies non-neuronal cell types in the olfactory system expressing SARS-CoV-2 entry genes, suggesting indirect mechanisms for COVID-19-associated anosmia.

The paper shows that embryonic and postnatal neurogenesis in the olfactory bulb produce functionally distinct subclasses of dopaminergic neurons.

This study shows that myosin II activity is essential for activity-dependent structural plasticity at the axon initial segment in rat hippocampal neurons.
