The stability of a memory can be expressed by its duration, its perseverance when conditions change as well as its specificity to the learned stimulus. Using optogenetic and pharmacological manipulations in male mice, we show that the presence of noradrenaline in the olfactory bulb during acquisition renders olfactory memories more stable. We show that while inhibition of noradrenaline transmission during an odor–reward acquisition has no acute effects, it alters perseverance, duration, and specificity of the memory. We use a computational approach to propose a proof of concept model showing that a single, simple network effect of noradrenaline on olfactory bulb dynamics can underlie these seemingly different be- havioral effects. Our results show that acute changes in network dynamics can have long-term effects that extend beyond the network that was manipulated. Key words: computational; memory; noradrenaline; olfactory; stability Significance Statement Olfaction guides the behavior of animals.

  • Brain Gas Jay Hosler
    Brain Gas Jay Hosler Consider the possibility that any man could, if he were so inclined, be the sculptor of his own brain. -Santiago Ramon y Cajal he fact that learning changes the brain in some fundamen- tal way is something many of us take for granted. But, in doing so, we fail to consider the wondrous nature of the event. Our Texperiences can lead to substantial changes in the physical, chem- ical and electrical architecture of our brains. These changes may give us the ability to memorize our favorite poem, sight-read a song we have never heard or remember the smell of our grandparents’ home. By restructuring our brains, we construct memories that can change our behavior and persist throughout our entire lives. My interests lie in how memories of odors are established. Odors play a fundamental role in the lives of most animals in directing reproductive behavior, guiding the search for food and communicating with friends and rivals. But despite odors’ pivotal role, olfaction may well be the most mysterious and hard to describe of our senses.

While we can identify colors in very specific terms (“that apple is red”), we tend to describe odors in terms of something else (“that smells fruity”) or in terms of how they make us feel (“that smells disgusting”). Perhaps it is difficult because smell is our most ancient sense.

On the other hand, the stimulation of the olfactory system can influence stress levels, and a certain smell has been empirically known to have a stress- suppressing effect, indeed. In this review, we first outline what stress is and previous studies on stress-responsive biomarkers (stress markers) in the brain. Subsequently, we confirm the olfactory system and review previous studies on the relationship between smell and stress response by species, such as humans, rats, and mice. Numerous studies demonstrated the stress-suppressing effects of aroma. There are also investigations showing the effects of odor that induce stress in experimental animals. In addition, we introduce recent studies on the effects of aroma of coffee beans and essential oils, such as lavender, cypress, α-pinene, and thyme linalool on the behavior and the expression of stress marker candidates in the brain.

  • A Novel Paradigm for Assessing Olfactory Working Memory Capacity
    Huang et al. Translational Psychiatry (2020) 10:431 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41398-020-01120-w Translational Psychiatry ARTICLE Open Access A novel paradigm for assessing olfactory working memory capacity in mice Geng-Di Huang 1,2,3,4,5, Li-Xin Jiang1,2,3,4,5,FengSu6,7,Hua-LiWang 1,2,3,4,5, Chen Zhang7 and Xin Yu 1,2,3,4,5 Abstract A decline in working memory (WM) capacity is suggested to be one of the earliest symptoms observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Although WM capacity is widely studied in healthy subjects and neuropsychiatric patients, few tasks are developed to measure this variation in rodents. The present study describes a novel olfactory working memory capacity (OWMC) task, which assesses the ability of mice to remember multiple odours. The task was divided into five phases: context adaptation, digging training, rule-learning for non-matching to a single-sample odour (NMSS), rule- learning for non-matching to multiple sample odours (NMMS) and capacity testing. During the capacity-testing phase, the WM capacity (number of odours that the mice could remember) remained stable (average capacity ranged from 6.11 to 7.00) across different testing sessions in C57 mice. As the memory load increased, the average errors of each capacity level increased and the percent correct gradually declined to chance level, which suggested a limited OWMC in C57 mice. Then, we assessed the OWMC of 5 × FAD transgenic mice, an animal model of AD. We found that the performance displayed no significant differences between young adult (3-month-old) 5 × FAD mice and wild-type (WT) mice during the NMSS phase and NMMS phase; however, during the capacity test with increasing load, we found that the OWMC of young adult 5 × FAD mice was significantly decreased compared with WT mice, and the average error was significantly increased while the percent correct was significantly reduced, which indicated an impairment of WM capacity at the early stage of AD in the 5 × FAD mice model.

There are different neuromodulatory systems in olfactory circuits that control the sensory information flowing through the rest of the brain. The presence of the cannabinoid type-1 (CB1) receptor, (the main cannabinoid receptor in the brain), has been shown for more than 20 years in different brain olfactory areas. However, only over the last decade have we started to know the specific cellular mechanisms that link cannabinoid signaling to olfactory processing and the control of behavior. In this review, we aim to summarize and discuss our current knowledge about the presence of CB1 receptors, and the function of the endocannabinoid system in the regulation of different olfactory brain circuits and related behaviors.

Odor identification (OI) dysfunction serves as a marker for predicting dementia, but whether OI dysfunction increases the risk of dementia in LLD patients remains unclear. The present study aimed to explore the interactive effect of LLD and OI dysfunction on the risk of dementia and its underlying neuroimaging changes. One hundred and fifty-seven LLD patients and 101 normal controls were recruited, and data on their OI, cognition, activity of daily living (ADL), and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging were collected. Two × two factorial analyses were used to analyze the interactive effects of LLD and OI dysfunction on neuropsychological and neuroimaging abnormalities. Mediation analyses were used to explore whether abnormalities detected by 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; neuroimaging mediated the the associations between OI and cognition/ADL. The results suggested that LLD and OI dysfunction exhibited additive effects on reduced ADL, global cognition and memory scores, as well as neuroimaging variables including (i) increased fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF) in the right orbitofrontal cortex and right precentral cortex, and (ii) increased regional homogeneity (ReHo) in the left hippocampus/fusiform gyrus, etc.
