The vomeronasal system of mammals is chemoarchitecturally dichotomous. Two populations of receptor cells have been identified in the vomeronasal sensory epithelium based on the family of receptor proteins they express on their membranes. These two receptor cell populations express different G-protei

Background: Vomeronasal organs (VNOs) are paired epithelial structures located adjacent to the nasal septum that form in the late first trimester of human fetal development. Although VNOs have long been known to exist in fetal and adult humans, some studies continue to suggest that these structures
