RNA seq on olfactory epithelium cryosections
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) expressing the same olfactory receptor (OR) are randomlydispersed within the same olfactory epithelial zone. To date, between 4 and 12 zones havebeen defined based on OR expression by in-situ hybridization studies. However, the totalnumber of zones, their organisation, molecular identity, and their distribution across thedorsal-ventral, anterior-posterior and lateral-medial axes are still unknown. To address thesequestions we propose to perform RNA-seq on sequential cryosections along the dorsalventraland anterior-posterior axes. This will provide a spatial dimension to the quantitativedata we already have on the number of each neuron type in the entire epithelium. We aim touse this as preliminary data for a grant application to completely resolve the 3D organisationof the olfactory epithelium at a cellular level. This data is part of a pre-publication release.
