Several developments during the past 15 years have profoundly affected our understanding
of the vomeronasal system (VNS) of vertebrates. In the mid 1990s, the vomeronasal …

Intraspecific communication involves the activation of chemoreceptors and subsequent
activation of different central areas that coordinate the responses of the entire organism …

The vomeronasal organ of mammals is an olfactory sensory structure that detects
pheromones. It contains two subsets of sensory neurons that differentially express Gα o and …

The vomeronasal organ (VNO) mediates detection of pheromones related to social and
reproductive behavior in most terrestrial vertebrates. We have identified a new multigene …

The vomeronasal organ (VNO) of terrestrial vertebrates plays a key role in the detection of
pheromones, chemicals released by animals that elicit stereotyped sexual and aggressive …

The Olf-1/EBF helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factor has been implicated in olfactory
gene regulation and in B-cell development. Using homology screening methods, we …

Two large and divergent families of G-protein-coupled receptors (V1Rs and V2Rs) are
expressed in subsets of neurons in the vomeronasal organ. These receptors are likely to …

Detection and transduction of pheromonal signals by the mouse vomeronasal organ (VNO)
is critical for the formation of a persistent memory required for mate recognition in the context …

Recently, two large multigene families of putative G-protein-linked receptors that are
expressed in distinct subpopulations of neurones in the vomeronasal organ have been …
