Olfactory bulb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (280 words) |
 | The olfactory bulb is a part of the brain that is a distinct outgrowth from the forebrain of mammals. |
| The olfactory bulb receives direct input from olfactory nerve, made up of the axons from approximately ten million olfactory receptor neurons in the olfactory mucosa, a region of the nasal cavity. |
| Glomeruli are permeated by dendritic inputs to neurons known as mitral cells, which in turn output to the olfactory cortex. |

| Glutathione was significantly depleted in olfactory mucosa after one day of dietary exposure at 10 or 126 mg/kg/day (p=0.041 and 0.007, respectively) with a rebound in the high dose group 2-4 days thereafter. |
| Olfactory mucosal ascorbate was significantly depleted after one day of treatment at all doses (p<0.05), possibly contributing to abnormal cell growth by disrupting normal expression of extracellular matrix proteins important for cell orientation. |
| Levels of cytochrome P450 2A3, an enzyme in the olfactory mucosa hypothesized to participate in the bioactivation of alachlor, as well as a potential marker for oxidative stress, decreased (western blot) analysis in the olfactory mucosa of alachlor-treated rats. |
