Neuroplasticity in the sparing or deterioration of function after early olfactory tract lesions.

Science
M Devor

Abstract

Mating behavior in male hamsters depends on the sense of smell. Thus, complete transection of the lateral olfactory tract in adults eliminates mating. If the cut is made early in life, however, mating is spared. Partial section of the tract in adults does not affect mating, but similar cuts in the neonate lead to impaired mating performance later in life. Observed postsurgical rearrangements in the connections of axons in the lateral olfactory tract may explain both the sparing and the deterioration of function.

Basal Ganglia

Basal Ganglia are a group of subcortical nuclei in the brain associated with control of voluntary motor movements, procedural and habit learning, emotion, and cognition. Here is the latest research.
