A histological protocol for quantifying the birthrates of specific subtypes of olfactory sensory neurons in mice

Summary: Mammals typically have hundreds of distinct olfactory sensory neuron subtypes, each defined by expression of a specific odorant receptor gene, which undergo neurogenesis throughout life at rates that can depend on olfactory experience. Here, we present a protocol to quantify the birthrates...
