Expressing exogenous functional odorant receptors in cultured olfactory sensory neurons.

Neural development | 2008

Olfactory discrimination depends on the large numbers of odorant receptor genes and differential ligand-receptor signaling among neurons expressing different receptors. In this study, we describe an in vitro system that enables the expression of exogenous odorant receptors in cultured olfactory sensory neurons. Olfactory sensory neurons in the culture express characteristic signaling molecules and, therefore, provide a system to study receptor function within its intrinsic cellular environment.

MetaFluor Fluorescence Ratio Imaging Software (tool)

RRID:SCR_014294

Software designed for single or multi-wavelength intracellular ion measurements. It provides simultaneous display of raw data, ratio image, graphs of intensities, ratios, ion concentrations, and a non-ratiometric image such as a brightfield or phase-contrast image. Two different ratiometric indicators can be imaged and measured simultaneously to provide greater insight to ion exchange and intracellular function regardless of dye loading concentrations, conditions, or emission intensities.
