Bulbar Acetylcholine Enhances Neural and Perceptual Odor Discrimination by Chaudhury, Dipesh, Escanilla, Olga, Linster, Christiane

“…Experimental and modeling data suggest that the circuitry of the main olfactory bulb (OB) plays a critical role in olfactory discrimination. Processing of such…”

Odor-taste convergence in the nucleus of the solitary tract of the awake freely licking rat by Escanilla, Olga D, Victor, Jonathan D, Di Lorenzo, Patricia M

“…Flavor is produced by the integration of taste, olfaction, texture, and temperature, currently thought to occur in the cortex. However, previous work has shown…”

The Neural Code for Taste in the Nucleus of the Solitary Tract of Rats with Obesity Following Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery by Escanilla, Olga D, Hajnal, Andras, Czaja, Krzysztof, Di Lorenzo, Patricia M

“…Previous work has shown that taste responses in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS; the first central relay for gustation) are blunted in rats with…”

Olfactory perceptual learning requires adult neurogenesis by Moreno, Mélissa M, Linster, Christiane, Escanilla, Olga, Sacquet, Joëlle, Didier, Anne, Mandairon, Nathalie

“…Perceptual learning is required for olfactory function to adapt appropriately to changing odor environments. We here show that newborn neurons in the olfactory…”

Spontaneous Changes in Taste Sensitivity of Single Units Recorded over Consecutive Days in the Brainstem of the Awake Rat by Sammons, Joshua D, Weiss, Michael S, Escanilla, Olga D, Fooden, Andrew F, Victor, Jonathan D, Di Lorenzo, Patricia M

“…A neuron's sensitivity profile is fundamental to functional classification of cell types, and underlies theories of sensory coding. Here we show that gustatory…”

Noradrenergic modulation of behavioral odor detection and discrimination thresholds in the olfactory bulb by Escanilla, Olga, Arrellanos, Adolfo, Karnow, Alexandra, Ennis, Matthew, Linster, Christiane

“…The mammalian main olfactory bulb (MOB) receives a significant noradrenergic input from the locus coeruleus. Norepinephrine (NE) is involved in the acquisition…”

Dopaminergic Modulation of Olfactory Bulb Processing Affects Odor Discrimination Learning in Rats by Escanilla, Olga, Yuhas, Courtney, Marzan, David, Linster, Christiane

“…Olfactory behavioral studies have shown that, when modulated through systemic injections, D1 and D2 receptors have opposing effects on odor discrimination…”

Context-Dependent Odor Learning Requires the Anterior Olfactory Nucleus by Levinson, Max, Kolenda, Jacob P., Alexandrou, Gabriella J., Escanilla, Olga, Cleland, Thomas A., Smith, David M., Linster, Christiane

“…Learning to associate the context in which a stimulus occurs is an important aspect of animal learning. We propose that the association of an olfactory…”

Olfactory Bulb Habituation to Odor Stimuli by Chaudhury, Dipesh, Manella, Laura, Arellanos, Adolfo, Escanilla, Olga, Cleland, Thomas A, Linster, Christiane

“…Habituation is a simple form of memory, yet its neurobiological mechanisms are only beginning to be understood in mammals. In the olfactory system, the neural…”

Noradrenergic but Not Cholinergic Modulation of Olfactory Bulb During Processing of Near Threshold Concentration Stimuli by Escanilla, Olga, Alperin, Sam, Youssef, Monica, Ennis, Matthew, Linster, Christiane

“…Neuromodulatory systems such as noradrenaline (NE), acetylcholine (ACh), and serotonin (5HT) serve important functions in sensory perception. We use the…”

Chemosensory Convergence in Brainstem Structures: Effect of Retronasal Odorants to Taste Responses in the NTS and PbN in Awake, Freely Licking Rats by Escanilla, Olga D

“…Integration of taste and odor stimuli is an integral part of flavor formation, but its underlying mechanisms are not very well understood. Such multisensory…”

Odor-reward learning and enrichment have similar effects on odor perception by Escanilla, Olga, Mandairon, Nathalie, Linster, Christiane

“…Abstract We compared the respective effects of odor enrichment and reward-driven discrimination learning on the perception of odors. Experimental rats were…”

Duration and Specificity of Olfactory Nonassociative Memory by FREEDMAN, Kaitlin G, RADHAKRISHNA, Sreya, ESCANILLA, Olga, LINSTER, Christiane

“…Olfactory habituation is a simple form of nonassociative memory in which responsiveness to stable but behaviorally nonsignificant stimuli is decreased…”
