Olfactory Outcomes After Endoscopic Sinus Surgery for Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyposis

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate subjective and objective olfactory outcomes in patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Methods Prospective, single‐center study including adult patients undergoing ESS for CRSwNP from July 2022 to May 2024.

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

Insights on the nutritional ecology of a nocturnal pollinating insect

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1123-1141, June 2026.
Nutritional ecology examines the environmental effects on nutritional needs, food intake and foraging behaviors, and the use of nutrients ingested by animals. Among insects, Lepidoptera are often considered opportunistic foragers that visit a wide variety of available flowers, although with some preferences.

Functional characterization of a human odorant receptor

open access: yes, 2005
Olfaction appears to be mediated by a large family of odorant receptors (ORs) that accounts for ~ 1% of the human genome [1–4]. The functional characterization of these receptors has so far been hindered by their poor functional expression in the plasma ...

Psychosocial Factors Mediate the Relationship Between Olfactory Function and Cognitive Frailty in Older Adults: A Structural Equation Modelling

open access: yesAustralasian Journal on Ageing, Volume 45, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective With the trend of population ageing, cognitive frailty in older adults is an increasingly pressing public health issue. Identifying early‐stage risk factors has become a key priority for researchers with the goal of preventing disability.

Phylogenetic relationship among odorant receptor (OR) orthologs.

open access: yes, 2015
Lepidopteran OR gene family relationships were constructed by a Neighbor-Joining (NJ) method. The OR unigenes of Ostrinia furnacalis (abbreviated Ofur) with are marked with red spot, and Bmor and Cpun are respective abbreviations for Conogethes ...

Odorant Receptors and Cancer

open access: yesReceptors
Odorant receptors (ORs) constitute the largest family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), with nearly 400 receptors identified in humans. The "omics" era has revealed an unexpected expression of ORs beyond olfactory tissues. For many decades these receptors were neglected from cancer research, largely due to the assumption that ...

GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 11, Page 2619-2633, June 2026.
G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

Genome‐wide and gene‐specific DNA methylation across developmental stages in Pogonomyrmex californicus: A socially polymorphic ant

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 232-245, June 2026.
Comparison between developmental stages (larvae, pupae, worker) in Pogonomyrmex californicus revealed significant stage‐specific differences in Gene Body Methylated frequencies. Methylation sites were highly correlated between WGBS and ONT in P. californicus Genome‐wide methylation was low (~3%) and highly clustered within gene bodies (GBM), especially

Functional Evolution of Odorant Binding Proteins Genes in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yes, 2009
Adaptive evolution of animals depends on behaviors that are essential for their survival and reproduction. Adaptive evolution has resulted in diverse chemoreceptor families, in which polymorphisms contribute to individual variation in chemosensation ...
