[Bilateral projection of the olfactory mucosa in the frog]. 1989

Department de Neurophysiologie comparée, Institut des Neurosciences, Paris.

Bulbar potentials wer bilaterally recorded in the frog following electrical stimulation of one olfactory nerve bundle. The general features of the contralateral evoked response were very similar to those of ipsilateral ones. The contralateral response was shown to be produced in situ, not being electronically transmitted from the bulb on the stimulated side. Its response disappeared after section of the olfactory interbulbar adhesion but was not affected by sectioning through either the anterior or the habenular commissure. It was concluded that messages from the neuroreceptors belonging to either the ventral or the dorsal olfactory mucosa on one side, reach both olfactory bulbs.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009830	Olfactory Bulb	Ovoid body resting on the CRIBRIFORM PLATE of the ethmoid bone where the OLFACTORY NERVE terminates. The olfactory bulb contains several types of nerve cells including the mitral cells, on whose DENDRITES the olfactory nerve synapses, forming the olfactory glomeruli. The accessory olfactory bulb, which receives the projection from the VOMERONASAL ORGAN via the vomeronasal nerve, is also included here.

D009831	Olfactory Mucosa	That portion of the nasal mucosa containing the sensory nerve endings for SMELL, located at the dome of each NASAL CAVITY. The yellow-brownish olfactory epithelium consists of OLFACTORY RECEPTOR NEURONS; brush cells; STEM CELLS; and the associated olfactory glands.

D009832	Olfactory Nerve	The 1st cranial nerve. The olfactory nerve conveys the sense of smell. It is formed by the axons of OLFACTORY RECEPTOR NEURONS which project from the olfactory epithelium (in the nasal epithelium) to the OLFACTORY BULB.

D005071	Evoked Potentials	Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
