However, several mechanistic aspects of sensory signaling in the vomeronasalorgan remain unclear.

The researchers said they bred female mice without a gene critical to the vomeronasalorgan's function.
3
The trpc2 gene encodes an ion channel involved in pheromonal detection and is found in the vomeronasalorgan.

But some scientists suspected that mammals could only detect pheromones with specialized sensory apparatus called the vomeronasalorgan, which humans don't have.
5
It turns out female mice need the vomeronasalorgan to tell the sexes apart, just as males have in earlier studies, the researchers said.
