While it has been shown that activity in the central olfactory system of seniors responding to odor stimulation is significantly less than that of young people, no information of the aging effect on the functions of this system during normal adulthood and early aging has been gathered. In this study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the olfaction-related brain activity in the central olfactory structures of 43 healthy adult volunteers aged from 22 to 64 years. The participants’ smell identification function was negatively correlated with age (r = −.32, p = .037). Significant negative correlation was observed between age and the olfaction-related activities in the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, left insular cortex, and left orbitofrontal cortex (p < .001, corrected with cluster size ≥28 voxels).

Lippe5 and Masaru Kuroda2 Abstract Background: The role of the piriform cortex (PC) in olfactory information processing remains largely unknown. The anterior part of the piriform cortex (APC) has been the focus of cortical-level studies of olfactory coding, and asso- ciative processes have attracted considerable attention as an important part in odor discrimination and olfactory information processing. Associational connections of pyramidal cells in the guinea pig APC were studied by direct visualization of axons stained and quantitatively analyzed by intracellular biocytin injection in vivo. Results: The observations illustrated that axon collaterals of the individual cells were widely and spatially distrib- uted within the PC, and sometimes also showed a long associational projection to the olfactory bulb (OB). The data showed that long associational axons were both rostrally and caudally directed throughout the PC, and the intrinsic associational fibers of pyramidal cells in the APC are omnidirectional connections in the PC. Within the PC, associa- tional axons typically followed rather linear trajectories and irregular bouton distributions. Quantitative data of the axon collaterals of two pyramidal cells in the APC showed that the average length of axonal collaterals was 101 mm, out of which 79 mm (78% of total length) were distributed in the PC.

In this sum- mary of topics, which is not meant to provide a comprehensive survey, we will first review the anatomy of corticostriatal circuits, comparing different ways by which “loops” of cortical–basal ganglia circuits communicate. Next, we will address the causal importance and systems-neurophysiological mechanisms of corticostriatal interactions for memory, emphasizing the communi- cation between hippocampus and ventral striatum during contextual conditioning. Furthermore, ensemble recording techniques have been applied to compare information processing in the dorsal and ventral striatum to predictions from reinforcement learning theory.

  • Medial Temporal Lobe (The Limbic System)
    MEDIAL TEMPORAL LOBE (THE LIMBIC SYSTEM) On the medial surface of the temporal lobe are three structures critical for normal human functioning. From rostral to caudal, they are the olfactory cortex, the amygdala, and the hippocampus. We will look at the anatomy and function of each separately, although they are often grouped together as "the limbic system". A. The olfactory system: The olfactory system actually begins in the roof of the nasal cavity. The olfactory receptors are ciliated epithelial cells with an array of receptors capable of detecting thousands of different odors. However, just as with any sensory system, the receptor neurons themselves do not project to the cerebral hemispheres. Their axons project up through the cribiform plate of the skull to synapse on the dendrites of the mitral cells of the olfactory bulb. The axons of the olfactory receptors make up the elusive cranial nerve I. This fragile tract is susceptible to shearing forces in head trauma, and loss of smell is a surprisingly debilitating injury. Here is an example of a section through olfactory bulb. The olfactory bulb is not a simple relay (something which passively transmits the signal), but is a sophisticated structure in itself. The mitral cell- olfactory neuron synapse is actually within a tangle of axons and dendrites that is called a glomerulus. There is a second cell type tucked around these glomeruli which probably affects how the signal is transmitted. These cells are small and densely packed, which gives them the name "granule cells". However, they bear no relation to the granule cells of the cerebellum or cerebral cortex.

  • Olfactory Maps, Circuits and Computations
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Olfactory maps, circuits and computations Andrew J Giessel and Sandeep Robert Datta Sensory information in the visual, auditory and somatosensory between local positional features to extract information systems is organized topographically, with key sensory features like object identity, depth and motion [4–6]. Unlike the ordered in space across neural sheets. Despite the existence of a small number of continuous sensory parameters that spatially stereotyped map of odor identity within the olfactory characterize vision, audition and touch (such as position, bulb, it is unclear whether the higher olfactory cortex uses frequency and amplitude), olfactory parameter space is topography to organize information about smells. Here, we poorly defined and highly multidimensional [7]. For review recent work on the anatomy, microcircuitry and example, any given monomolecular odorant can be neuromodulation of two higher-order olfactory areas: the described in terms of its functional groups, molecular piriform cortex and the olfactory tubercle. The piriform is an weight, chain length, bond substitution, resonance fre- archicortical region with an extensive local associational network quency or any number of additional chemical descrip- that constructs representations of odor identity. The olfactory tors. Furthermore, olfactory space is inherently tubercle is an extension of the ventral striatum that may use discrete — not only are individual odorants structurally reward-based learning rules to encode odor valence. We argue unique but many of the molecular descriptors typically that in contrast to brain circuits for other sensory modalities, both used for individual odorants (such as functional group or the piriform and the olfactory tubercle largely discard any bond substitution) cannot be mapped continuously in topography present in the bulb and instead use distributive any scheme for chemical space.

Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute, Department of Pharmacology, Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, New York Odors activate distributed ensembles of neurons within the piriform cortex, forming cortical representations of odor thought to be essential to olfactory learning and behaviors. This odor response is driven by direct input from the olfactory bulb, but is also shaped by a dense network of associative or intracortical inputs to piriform, which may enhance or constrain the cort- ical odor representation. With optogenetic techniques, it is possible to functionally isolate defined inputs to piriform cortex and assess their potential to activate or inhibit piriform pyramidal neurons. The anterior olfactory nucleus (AON) receives direct input from the olfactory bulb and sends an associative projection to piriform cortex that has potential roles in the state-dependent processing of olfactory behaviors. Here, we provide a detailed functional assessment of the AON afferents to piriform in male and female C57Bl/6J mice. We confirm that the AON forms glutamatergic excitatory synapses onto piriform pyramidal neurons; and while these inputs are not as strong as piriform recurrent collaterals, they are less constrained by disynaptic inhibition.

  • On the Scent of Human Olfactory Orbitofrontal Cortex: Meta-Analysis and Comparison to Non-Human Primates
    Brain Research Reviews 50 (2005) 287 – 304 www.elsevier.com/locate/brainresrev Review On the scent of human olfactory orbitofrontal cortex: Meta-analysis and comparison to non-human primates Jay A. Gottfrieda,*, David H. Zaldb aDepartment of Neurology and the Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer’s Disease Center, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, 320 E. Superior St., Searle 11-453, Chicago, IL 60611, USA bDepartment of Psychology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37240, USA Accepted 25 August 2005 Available online 6 October 2005 Abstract It is widely accepted that the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) represents the main neocortical target of primary olfactory cortex. In non-human primates, the olfactory neocortex is situated along the basal surface of the caudal frontal lobes, encompassing agranular and dysgranular OFC medially and agranular insula laterally, where this latter structure wraps onto the posterior orbital surface. Direct afferent inputs arrive from most primary olfactory areas, including piriform cortex, amygdala, and entorhinal cortex, in the absence of an obligatory thalamic relay. While such findings are almost exclusively derived from animal data, recent cytoarchitectonic studies indicate a close anatomical correspondence between non-human primate and human OFC. Given this cross-species conservation of structure, it has generally been presumed that the olfactory projection area in human OFC occupies the same posterior portions of OFC as seen in non-human primates. This review questions this assumption by providing a critical survey of the localization of primate and human olfactory neocortex. Based on a meta-analysis of human functional neuroimaging studies, the region of human OFC showing the greatest olfactory responsivity appears substantially rostral and in a different cytoarchitectural area than the orbital olfactory regions as defined in the monkey.
