Nervceller i luktepitelet med proteiner (luktreceptorer) som binder, och därmed påvisar, luktämnen. Dessa nervceller skickar ut sina dendriter till epitelets yta, med luktreceptorerna belägna ytterst på de orörliga flimmerhåren. Deras myelinfria utskott bildar synapser i luktloben i hjärnan.
Neurons in the OLFACTORY EPITHELIUM with proteins (RECEPTORS, ODORANT) that bind, and thus detect, odorants. These neurons send their DENDRITES to the surface of the epithelium with the odorant receptors residing in the apical non-motile cilia. Their unmyelinated AXONS synapse in the OLFACTORY BULB of the BRAIN.
