Chemical communication is the most ancient way of information exchange between organisms. For majority of mammals, the analysis of olfactory stimuli is crucial for organization of complex behaviors. The review is devoted to the analysis of the role of pheromones in the organization of mammalian behavior in the evolutionary aspect. The discussion about the existence of human pheromones has drawn attention of scientific community in recent decades: a separate section covers this topic. Special attention is paid to the patterns of changes in the neuroanatomical sub-strate and the pool of functional genes encoding the olfactory and vomeronasal receptors in mammals, including humans. The future perspectives of research in this area are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
