Kallmann Syndrome and the Link between Olfactory and Reproductive Development  Elena I. Rugarli  The American Journal of Human Genetics  Volume 65, Issue 4, Pages 943-948 (October 1999) DOI: 10.1086/302600 Copyright © 1999 The American Society of Human Genetics Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Model for KS pathogenesis. In normal individuals (left), the olfactory neurons (ON) in the olfactory epithelium send their axons through the cribriform plate (CP) to reach the olfactory bulb. Within the glomerular layer (GL) of the bulb, they make synapses with dendrites of mitral cells (M) whose axons will form the olfactory tract (OT). Neurons secreting GnRH (shown in red) originate in the olfactory placode and migrate along the olfactory nerves until they reach the forebrain. For simplicity, no distinction is made in this drawing between the proper olfactory nerve and the vomeronasal nerve. The KAL protein (green area) is secreted by mitral cells in the extracellular matrix of the bulb where it is required for proper interactions with olfactory axons. In KS patients (right), the KAL protein is absent, and, therefore, olfactory axons cannot interact properly with their target, ending their migration between the cribriform plate and the forebrain. The migration defect of GnRH neurons in KS is thus a secondary effect caused by lack of contact between the olfactory nerves and the forebrain, resulting in the absence of a neural migration route.
