Olfactory Development, Part 1

Fetal olfactory maturation remains incomplete at term for neuronal differentiation, synaptogenesis, myelination, and persistence of the transitory fetal ventricular recess. Immaturity does not signify nonfunction. Olfaction is the only sensory system without thalamic projection because of its own intrinsic thalamic equivalent.

Morphologic features are discussed in part 2 of this series.7 Early Perception and Reaction to Olfactory Stimuli Preterm neonates regularly respond to olfactory stimuli after 28 weeks' gestation.15-17 Olfactory reflexes can be reliably tested in the neurologic examination of the term neonate using peppermint oil, the response being either ...

Olfactory Development, Part 1
Discrimination of odorous molecules in amniotic fluid occur after 30 weeks' gestation; fetuses exhibit differential responses to maternal diet. Olfactory reflexes enable reliable neonatal testing. Olfactory bulbs can be demonstrated reliably by MRI after 30 weeks' gestation, and their hypoplasia or aplasia also documented by late prenatal and postnatal MRI. Olfactory axons project from ...

Early human olfactory development is poorly understood due to limited fetal tissue. Here, the authors show that single-cell and spatial analyses map early nasal cell types and reveal first ...

Key Details About Olfactory Development Part 1 Function From Fetal Perception
These notes introduce the development of the sense of smell or olfaction and the associated structures including the nasal placode, olfactory epithelium, olfactory bulb, and vomeronasal organ. Recent research has shown a relationship between what the receptive epithelium is exposed too and how the central neural pathway develops, similar to that shown earlier for the vision system.

Together, this work establishes a molecular and spatial frame- fi work of early human olfactory development and provides a resource for stu-dies of sensory neurogenesis and congenital disorders.
