“…Chemically reactive VOCs capable of damaging cells can release intracellular nociceptive mediators which, in turn, stimulate endogenous receptors that signal damage to cells (Sutherland et al 2000;Garle and Fry 2003). The neural substrate for ocular chemesthetic detection rests on unmyelinated C-and thin myelinated A delta -fibers from the trigeminal nerve (Belmonte et al 2004). Free nerve endings from these fibers function as polymodal nociceptors and have been shown to contain many of the above receptors (Alimohammadi and Silver 2000;Silver et al 2006).…”

“…The approach relies on the observation that nasal lateralization is only achieved through trigeminal chemesthetic activation, not through olfactory stimulation (Schneider and Schmidt 1967;Kobal et al 1989). In the eyes, chemical stimulation with vapors exclusively activates chemesthesis, resulting in eye irritation (Belmonte et al 2004), and olfactory cues can be easily avoided by plugging the nose of the subject.…”

“…For this reason, the latter is also known as trigeminal chemoreception, and had been originally labeled "the common chemical sense" (Bryant and Silver, 2000). Trigeminal stimulation by chemical vapors results from activation of polymodal nociceptors present in C and A delta fibers (Martin and Jessell, 1991;Silver and Finger, 1991;Belmonte et al, 2004). In the ocular mucosa, the resulting sensation is eye irritation, a topic of both basic (Belmonte et al, 1997) and applied (Wolkoff et al, 2003) interest.…”
