The olfactory system is one of the few areas in the adult mammalian brain that exhibit continuing life-long neurogenesis. The adult-generated neurons of the olfactory bulb (OB) are born in the adult subventricular zone (SVZ) and migrate into the rostral migratory stream (RMS) to the OB where they differentiate into specific subtypes of OB interneurons, granule neurons and subtypes of periglomerular neurons (PGNs). However, the specific role of these neuronal subtypes and their life-long new addition to the network of the OB is not known. To clarify the role of the continuous integration of these specific newly generated neuronal subtypes for the adult olfactory system we will examine the dopaminergic subset of periglomerular interneurons PGNs, and the adult-generated glutamatergic neurons, another subset of PGNs. We shall examine on the one hand the activation of these neurons by c-fos upon specific olfactory stimuli and on the other hand the consequences of manipulating the numbers of these specific interneurons at the behavioural level. Using different mouse mutants and inducible genetic approaches we will reduce or completely abolish dopaminergic PGNs or selectively silence adult-generated glutamatergic OB interneurons. These approaches will improve our understanding of the general function of these interneurons for olfactory behaviour as well as the specific contribution of their integration in the adult animal.

嗅觉系统是成年哺乳动物大脑中表现出持续终身神经发生的少数区域之一。嗅球（OB）的成人产生的神经元出生于成人室室下区（SVZ），并迁移到OB迁移到OB中，它们分化为OB中神经元的特定亚型，颗粒神经元，颗粒神经元和亚型亚型的亚型。但是，这些神经元亚型的特定作用及其在OB网络中的终生新增功能尚不清楚。为了阐明这些新的新产生的神经元亚型在成人嗅觉系统中的连续整合，我们将研究周围神经元PGN的多巴胺能亚型，以及成人生成的谷氨酸神经元，PGNS的另一个子集。一方面，我们应在特定的嗅觉刺激上通过C-FOS来检查这些神经元的激活，另一方面，在行为层面操纵这些特定神经元的数量的后果。使用不同的小鼠突变体和可诱导的遗传方法，我们将减少或完全废除多巴胺能PGN，或选择性地沉默成人成人生成的谷氨酸能OB中间神经元。这些方法将提高我们对这些中间神经元对嗅觉行为的一般功能的理解，以及它们在成年动物中融合的特定贡献。
