Research Abstract |
The mammalian individual sensory systems integrate two right and left sensory inputs and generate accurate spatial representation of environmental cues. In olfactory systems, odors are inhaled through the nostrils into two segregated nasal passages and processed by two, right and left olfactory pathways. Anterior olfactory nucleus (AON) of the adult rat olfactory cortex receives axonal inputs from ipsi-lateral olfactory bulb and also receives inputs from contra-lateral olfactory cortex, suggesting binasal converging interaction from ipsi-lateral and contra-lateral olfactory epithelia (OEs). We showed that ipsi-excitatory and contra-inhibitory converging inputs (E-I type AON neurons) were selectively located in the AON Pars Externa (AONpE), the rostro-lateral subregion of the AON.
