Correct identification of the substance basis of Pseudostellariae Radix (PR) odor is important not only for the quality control of the products, but also for the safety of the consumers. PR is often described with a special smell, such as strange, moldy or earthy. Electronic nose-based technology coupled with headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) was used to investigate the volatile components in PR from 47 germplasms cultivated in traditional fields. A total of 48 common compounds were identified based on HS- SPME-GC-MS technology, and 25 of them with aroma characteristics were found based on Alpha soft 13.4. The 1-Octen-3-ol, geosim, (E)-2-nonenal and 1- methylnaphthalene as contributing marker compounds of the 'specific smell' of PR were identified. The odor recognition mode, with demonstrated excellent accuracy in recognition abilities, enabled the correct identification of commercial samples including complex mixtures.

Chronic stress exerts profound effects on mental health, contributing to disorders such as depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairment. This study examines the potential of psilocybin to alleviate behavioral despair and cognitive deficits in a rodent model of chronic stress, focusing on the interplay between the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis and the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). Twenty-two male Wistar rats were divided into control and stress groups.

Hippocampal region CA2 is essential for social memory processing. Interaction with social stimuli induces changes in CA2 place cell firing during active exploration and sharp wave-ripples during rest following a social interaction. However, it is unknown whether these changes in firing patterns are caused by integration of multimodal social stimuli or by a specific sensory modality associated with a social interaction.

Recognition protects biological systems at all scales, from cells to societies. Social insects recognize their nestmates by colony-specific olfactory labels that individuals store as neural templates in their memory. Throughout an ant's life, learning continuously shapes the nestmate recognition template to keep up with the constant changes in colony labels.

Introduction: The sense of smell is one of the most developed and important senses that forms the bond between the newborn and the mother and allows the newborn to reach the mother's breast. The sense of smell begins to form during intrauterine life, and the sense of smell can be a marking tool for a newborn baby, so that the baby can recognize both his mother and his immediate environment and develop his behaviour accordingly. This is necessary not only for feeding babies but also for them to feel safe and peaceful in their new environment.
