Neural circuits containing olfactory neurons are involved in the prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex in rats

Many neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, have been associated with olfactory dysfunction and abnormalities in the prepulse inhibition (PPI) response to a startle reflex. However, whether these two abnormalities could be related is unclear. The present investigations were designed to d...
