例如，研究表明，即使是短暂的气味刺激也会导致嗅觉上皮细胞中受体短暂的减少，这个过程被称为“受体疲劳”。

For example, studies show that even brief periods of odorant stimulation produce transient reductions in receptors in the olfactory epithelium, a process termed "receptor fatigue".

中隔器官仅约占主要嗅觉上皮大小的1%且哺乳动物没有中隔器官。

The septal organ is only about 1 percent the size of the main olfactory epithelium and isn't Shared by all mammals.

纽约大学的Wilson说，“真没想到，嗅觉上皮是一种检测特定嗅觉信息的结构。”

"To my surprise, this means something about the epithelium is tuned to pick up certain information" in certain zones, New York University's Wilson said.
