Interaction between Olfaction and Gustation by Using Synchrony Perception Task
It seems that interaction between olfaction (smell sensation) and gustation (taste sensation) will stronger than other interactions among five senses, although no one has ever confirmed psychophysically.

The scent of mating strategy: sociosexual orientation was associated with olfaction and body odor sniffing behavior in Chinese and American populations [PDF]
Background Human sexuality and mating behaviors have been linked to the subjective importance of olfaction and body odor in one’s life. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between sociosexual orientation, subjective importance of olfaction,

NADPH Oxidase 3 Deficiency Protects From Noise-Induced Sensorineural Hearing Loss
The reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating NADPH oxidase NOX3 isoform is highly and specifically expressed in the inner ear. NOX3 is needed for normal vestibular development but NOX-derived ROS have also been implicated in the pathophysiology of ...

COVID-19 Smell Impairment and Crosstalk with Hypoxia Physiology
Since its apomorphic appearance in 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) nowadays circulates as a plesiomorphic human virus in several synapomorphic variants. The respiratory tract is the most important site of infection,

Second-generation non-hematopoietic erythropoietin-derived peptide for neuroprotection
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a well-known erythropoietic cytokine having a tissue-protective effect in various tissues against hypoxic stress, including the brain. Thus, its recombinants may function as neuroprotective compounds. However, despite considerable

Clinical Implications of Septal Deviation in Lateralized Olfaction [PDF]
Objectives Results of butanol threshold tests (BTTs) have shown that birhinal olfaction tends to converge toward monorhinal olfaction of the dominant nostril. However, birhinal olfaction may also be worse than dominant-side monorhinal olfaction. The goal
