taste/olfaction
• olfactory sensory neurons are absent in the dorsal zone of the olfactory bulb epithelium
• mitral cells fail to form dendrtic terminal tufts indicating a lack of synaptic input
|
• no expression of class I or class II olfactory receptor genes in the dorsal zone of the olfactory epithelium
|
• the glomeruli of the dorsal zone of the olfactory bulb fail to detect several different odors
• there are decreased numbers of activated cells in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis after exposure to the odorant trimethyl-thiazoline
|
behavior/neurological
• mice are able to discriminate between structurally related odorants including trimethyl-thiazoline and 2-methylbutyric acid
|
• mice fail to show innate avoidance behavior to unpleasant scents including trimethyl-thiazoline (found in fox urine) and 2-methylbutyric acid (found in spoiled foods)
|
nervous system
• olfactory sensory neurons are absent in the dorsal zone of the olfactory bulb epithelium
• mitral cells fail to form dendrtic terminal tufts indicating a lack of synaptic input
|
• no expression of class I or class II olfactory receptor genes in the dorsal zone of the olfactory epithelium
|
craniofacial
• olfactory sensory neurons are absent in the dorsal zone of the olfactory bulb epithelium

|
respiratory system
• olfactory sensory neurons are absent in the dorsal zone of the olfactory bulb epithelium

growth/size/body
