Spider Angioma of the Nasal Mucosa [PDF]
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2020 Spider angioma is a benign vascular lesion reminiscent of a spider’s body characterized by peculiar dilatation of end vasculature. The lesion is characterized by a central spot and extensions which radiate outward like a spider’s body. Spider angiomas may appear as a solitary or multiple lesion that arises on the skin surface of the face, neck, chest,

Fibrinolytic components in nasal mucosa and nasal secretion [PDF]
Histochemistry and Cell Biology, 1998 We evaluated a possible role for fibrinolytic components in nasal secretion by tissue localization with immunohistochemical techniques and by measuring their antigen concentrations in nasal discharge by means of ELISA and fibrin autography. Nasal mucosa was obtained surgically from the inferior turbinate.

Nasal Lipopolysaccharide Challenge and Cytokine Measurement Reflects Innate Mucosal Immune Responsiveness [PDF]
, 2015 BackgroundPractical methods of monitoring innate immune mucosal responsiveness are lacking. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a component of the cell wall of Gram negative bacteria and a potent activator of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4.

Replication characteristics of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) European subtype 1 (Lelystad) and subtype 3 (Lena) strains in nasal mucosa and cells of the monocytic lineage: indications for the use of new receptors of PRRSV (Lena) [PDF]
, 2013 Recently, it has been demonstrated that subtype 3 strains of European type porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) are more virulent/pathogenic than subtype 1 strains. This points to differences in the pathogenesis.

Neuroregulation of Human Nasal Mucosa [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009 Multiple subsets of nociceptive, parasympathetic, and sympathetic nerves innervate human nasal mucosa. These play carefully coordinated roles in regulating glandular, vascular, and other processes. These functions are vital for cleaning and humidifying ambient air before it is inhaled into the lungs.

Nasal histamine responses in nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilic syndrome [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilic syndrome (NARES) is persistent, without atopy, but with ≥25% nasal eosinophilia. Hypereosinophilia seems to contribute to nasal mucosa dysfunction.

VASOACTIVE SUBSTANCES IN THE NASAL MUCOSA [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology and Chemotherapy, 1958 Besides histamine another smooth muscle stimulating substance has been found in the nasal mucosa of dog and sheep. It is an acid which is readily oxidized by neutral aqueous potassium permanganate and osmium tetroxide, and is thermostable at pH 10·8 but not at pH 2·8.

Development and use of a polarized equine upper respiratory tract mucosal explant system to study the early phase of pathogenesis of a European strain of equine arteritis virus [PDF]
, 2013 The upper respiratory tract mucosa represents the first line of defense, which has to be overcome by pathogens before invading the host. Considering the economic and ethical aspects involved in using experimental animals for pathogenesis studies ...

Lymphocyte Differentiation in the Nasal Mucosa
European Journal of Inflammation, 2007 Few cytological studies have investigated the morphologic changes occurring during lymphocyte differentiation in the nose. The aim of the study is to investigate lymphocyte and plasma cell morphology in patients with allergic rhinitis. Nasal cytology was performed in 110 patients (61 men, 49 women) of ages ranging from 12 to 47 years (mean age, 27 ...
