Expression Profiling of mRNAs and Long Non-Coding RNAs in Aged Mouse Olfactory Bulb

Abstract Age-related decline in olfactory function affects the quality of life in elderly people and also potentially represents an early clinical symptom of neurodegenerative disorder. Olfactory bulb (OB) plays a central role in olfactory information transmitting and signal processing. The mechanis...

These findings suggest that a decline of olfactory function in aged mice may be linked to differential expression of specific lncRNAs and their potentially adverse effects on the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway in the OB.
