Previously it has been shown that excitatory effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) upon interneurons in the rat piriform cortex are mediated by 5-HTzA receptors. This receptor is linked to phosphoinositide turnover, and one consequence of stimulating this receptor is the activation of protein kinase
Much data on the olfactory bulb (OB) indicates that structural characteristics of odorant molecules are encoded as ordered, spatially consolidated sets of active cells. New results with "genetic tracing" (Zou et al. [2001] Nature 414:173-179) suggest that spatial order is also present in projections
Mechanisms for the induction and expression of long-term potentiation (LTP) were studied in slices of piriform cortex. Cooperativity among afferent inputs as a controlling factor for induction of LTP was tested by pairing stimulation of one input that normally does not induce LTP with stimulation of
