We have found that exposure to male and musk odors can accelerate the birthrates of responsive OSNs, revealing that certain odor experiences can selectively "amplify" specific OSN subtypes.

Here we review evidence and consider mechanistic and functional implications of the prospect that specific olfactory experiences (deprivation, enrichment, conditioning, and injury recovery) can regulate olfactory sensory neurogenesis rates in a subtype-selective manner.

Here, we present a protocol to quantify the birthrates of specific neuron subtypes via the simultaneous detection of corresponding receptor mRNAs and 5-ethynyl-20-deoxyuridine.

Here, using histological, single-cell, and targeted affinity purification approaches, we show that closing one nostril in mice selectively reduces the number of newly generated OSNs of specific subtypes.

Here we investigate how the mouse olfactory sensory receptor repertoire changes as a function of exposure to odors emitted from members of the opposite sex, which are highly complex and sexually dimorphic.

We show that H2BE expression is reduced by sensory activity and that it promotes neuronal cell death, such that inactive olfactory neurons display higher levels of the variant and shorter life spans.
