Dopaminergic modulation of olfactory‐evoked motor output in sea lampreys (<i>Petromyzon marinus</i> L.)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Detection of chemical cues is important to guide locomotion in association with feeding and sexual behavior. Two neural pathways responsible for odor-evoked locomotion have been characterized in the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus L.), a basal vertebrate. There is a medial pathway originating in the medial olfactory bulb (OB) and a lateral pathway originating from the rest of the OB. These olfactomotor pathways are present throughout the life cycle of lampreys, but olfactory-driven behaviors differ according to the developmental stage. Among possible mechanisms, dopaminergic (DA) modulation in the OB might explain the behavioral changes. Here, we examined DA modulation of olfactory transmission in lampreys. Immunofluorescence against DA revealed immunoreactivity in the OB that was denser in the medial part (medOB), where processes were observed close to primary olfactory afferents and projection neurons. Dopaminergic neurons labeled by tracer injections in the medOB were located in the OB, the posterior tuberculum, and the dorsal hypothalamic nucleus, suggesting the presence of both intrinsic and extrinsic DA innervation. Electrical stimulation of the olfactory nerve in an in vitro whole-brain preparation elicited synaptic responses in reticulospinal cells that were modulated by DA. Local injection of DA agonists in the medOB decreased the reticulospinal cell responses whereas the D2 receptor antagonist raclopride increased the response amplitude. These observations suggest that DA in the medOB could modulate odor-evoked locomotion. Altogether, these results show the presence of a DA innervation within the medOB that may play a role in modulating olfactory inputs to the motor command system of lampreys.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
