The paper presents an ensemble model that improves predictions of perceptual similarity between odor mixtures using a curated dataset and collaborative challenge results.

This study investigates olfactory system degeneration in NPC1 disease using mouse models and human families, finding reduced olfactory sensory neuron density and severe hyposmia in affected individuals.

This study investigates the role of AQP4 isoforms in the olfactory epithelium, showing their impact on cell density, odorant responses, and olfactory behavior in knockout mice.

This study shows that TMEM16B, a Ca2+-activated Cl- channel, influences the response kinetics and action potential generation of olfactory sensory neurons, while the CNG channel primarily determines response delay and adaptation.

This study records electrophysiological properties of human olfactory sensory neurons using acute slices, revealing functional transduction mechanisms involving cAMP.
