The olfactory club is an olfactory organ that is located in the nasal cavity and is responsible for the perception of odors. It consists of several dozen olfactory vesicles, each of which contains olfactory receptors. The olfactory club plays an important role in detecting odors and allows us to distinguish between different aromas.

Olfactory vesicles are small formations that are located on the surface of the olfactory club. They contain olfactory receptors that respond to various chemical compounds in the air. When these compounds enter the vesicles, they cause a change in the electrical potential on the vesicle membrane, which leads to the activation of olfactory receptors.

The olfactory club also contains many nerve fibers that transmit odor information to the brain. In the brain, odor information is processed and then used to make decisions and behavior.

An important function of the olfactory club is its participation in the recognition of odors. For example, the smell of lemon causes the activation of certain olfactory receptors, which then transmit the information to the brain, where it is processed and recognized as the smell of lemon.

In addition, the olfactory club is involved in the formation of olfactory perception. For example, if we inhale air containing the scent of a flower, the olfactory club activates the corresponding olfactory receptors and transmits information to the brain.

Overall, the olfactory club is an important organ for the perception of smells and plays an important role in our lives. Its functions include not only the perception of odors, but also participation in the formation of olfactory perception and the recognition of odors.

Olfactory clubs are clusters of myeloid cells in the olfactory epithelium. Basically, olfactory clubs are formed from bundles of neurons that form receptor hair cells and precursors of multipotent stem cells. Once formed, olfactory cells develop and reach maturity relatively slowly, beginning one of their most important processes—the formation of the olfactory club. The cells migrate in the cytoplasm to the body of the olfactory club, where they remain for a period of several days to several months, depending on the type of animal. During this period of mitotic division and proliferation of myelin cells, the cellular content of globoside, the main myelin of the olfactory club in the bone marrow becomes more dense, which in turn leads to the formation of a myelinamine sheath over the cells. This myelin sheath has a similar composition or structure to that observed in the globulicular organism of the tubular apparatus. Myelin junctions and pericalial glial cells pass through the interstitial cleft of the olfactory epithelium between the olfactory and supporting cells, providing them with electrical communication. Once the olfactory rods enter the internal space of the olfactory surface, the structure of the olfactory club ends. The respiratory gimlets and processes of the pyramidal body pass between the myelin sheaths within the body, allowing information about chemosensitive stimuli to be carried through the olfactory gimlet to the pyramidal body and the cerebral cortex.
