Definition
English
:
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.
