External plexiform layer

Immediately deep to the glomeruli is a layer with a relatively low cell density but a very dense neuropil, the external plexiform layer (EPL). Golgi-stained sections reveal that the predominant neural elements in this layer are the dendrites of mitral/tufted and granule cells. The principal neuron types in EPL are external, middle (Fig. 12B) and deep tufted cells, named according to their relative depth in EPL, and the Van Ge-huchten cells. [Pg.486]

Candidate transmitters of tufted cells and Van Gehuchten cells [Pg.486]

The axons of the external tufted cells project mainly to other sites in the same olfactory bulb (Schoenfeld et al. 1985). Middle and deep tufted cells also have local collaterals in the ipsilateral bulb but most of them appear to project out of the olfactory bulb to the anterior olfactory nucleus and other rostral olfactory cortical structures (Schoenfeld et al. 1985 Scott, 1986). The intrabulbar collaterals of the superficial tufted cells form [Pg.486]

A second class of EPL neurons are the Van Gehuchten cells. These cells are characterized by two or more thick primary dendrites that remain in the EPL. Axons from these cells terminate around mitral and tufted cells. Many of these Van Gehuchten cells stain positively for vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (Sanides Kohlrausch and Wahle, 1990b) calcium binding protein (Brinon et al. 1992 Alonso et al. 1993) and parvalbumin (Celio, 1990) (Fig. 9B). [Pg.487]

Many of the middle tufted cells are reported to contain vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) in the rat (Fig. 11 A) (Gall et al. 1986), but in the cat, this peptide appears to be in van Gehuchten cells not tufted cells (Sanides Kohlrausch and Wahle, 1990a). In the hamster, a few middle tufted cells are NADPH diaphorase positive (Davis, 1991). [Pg.488]


Mu receptors are almost always located proximally, on the presynaptic side of the synapse. The periaqueductal gray is the region containing the most mu receptors, but they are also found in the superficial dorsal hom of the spinal cord, the external plexiform layer of the olfactory bulb, the nucleus accumbens (an area deeply implicated in the process of addiction), in some parts of the cerebral cortex, and in some of the nuclei of the amygdala. Mu receptors avidly bind enkephalins and beta-endorphin, but they have a low affinity for dynorphins (primarily a kappa receptor agonist).6... [Pg.50]

In the olfactory bulb, D2 receptor immunoreactivity was detected in the glomerular and external plexiform layers the olfactory nerve also exhibited immunopositivity (Levey et ah, 1993). [Pg.78]

Glutaminase-immunoreactive neuronal cell bodies were observed in the mitral cell layer, in the outer part of the external plexiform layer, and periglomerular regions of the olfactory bulb (Figs. 2a,b and 3b Kaneko and Mizuno, 1992b). The neuropil in the external plexiform layer and that in the glomeruli were intensely immunolabeled for glutaminase. [Pg.205]

Deep to the external plexiform layer is the mitral cell layer (Fig. 2). This is a thin layer that contains the somata of mitral cells (25- 35 pm diameter) arranged in almost a monolayer. These cells are the principal output cells of the bulb and, with some minor species differences (cf. Scott, 1986), have one apical dendrite that enters a single glomerulus, where it branches extensively and is synaptically contacted by olfactory axons (Shepherd, 1972a) (Figs. 4C,E, 5 and 12). [Pg.488]

HT,a receptor is found mainly in the external plexiform layer. On the other hand, the mRNA for the S-HTja receptor has been shown by in situ hybridization to be in the mitral cell and external plexiform layers (Pompeiano et al. 1994) and more precisely, in mitral and tufted cells (McLean et al. 1994). This leads one to speculate that the dendrites or cell bodies of olfactory bulb output cells receive serotonergic input via... [Pg.551]
