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

Many neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, have been associated with abnormalities in the function of the olfactory system and prepulse inhibition (PPI) of the startle reflex. However, whether these two abnormalities are related is unclear. The present study was designed to determine wh...
