Abstract excerpt
Development of the olfactory pathway requires interaction between cells and signals of different origin. Olfactory receptor neurons (ORN) in the olfactory placodes (OP) extend axons towards the forebrain (FB); with innervation taking place at a later time following degradation of the basement membrane. Cells from the OP migrate along ORN axons and differentiate into various elements, including ensheathing and...
