Olfactory Rod Cells: A Rare Cell Type in the Larval Zebrafish Olfactory Epithelium With a Large Actin-Rich Apical Projection

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
We report the presence of a rare cell type, the olfactory rod cell, in the developing zebrafish olfactory epithelium. These cells each bear a single actin-rich rod-like apical projection extending 5–10 μm from the epithelial surface.

Canonical Wnt Signaling Drives Tumor-Like Lesions from Sox2-Positive Precursors of the Murine Olfactory Epithelium. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Canonical Wnt signaling is known to promote proliferation of olfactory stem cells. In order to investigate the effects of a constitutive activation of Wnt signaling in Sox2-positive precursor cells of the olfactory epithelium, we used transgenic mice ...

Analysis of the goldfish Carassius auratus olfactory epithelium transcriptome reveals the presence of numerous non-olfactory GPCR and putative receptors for progestin pheromones

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background The goldfish (Carassius auratus) uses steroids and prostaglandins as pheromone cues at different stages of the reproductive cycle to facilitate spawning synchronization.

The Microvillar and Solitary Chemosensory Cells as the Novel Targets of Infection of SARS-CoV-2 in Syrian Golden Hamsters

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019, suffer from respiratory and non-respiratory symptoms. Among these symptoms, the loss of smell has attracted considerable

Olfactory Epithelium size in Mammals : A structured review

open access: yes, 2021
Members of the class Mammalia have the most advanced skeletal complexity of the nasal cavity among vertebrates. Most mammals have an olfactory epithelium that consists of basal cells, supporting cells and olfactory sensory neurons that bind odor ...

Olfaction in three genetic and two MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease mouse models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Various genetic or toxin-induced mouse models are frequently used for investigation of early PD pathology. Although olfactory impairment is known to precede motor symptoms by years, it is not known whether it is caused by impairments in the brain, the ...

Histological characterization of the olfactory organ in schilbid catfish, Clupisoma garua (Hamilton, 1822)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2018
Fishes have a good sense of smell and are able to ascertain odour with the help of a pair of olfactory organs connected to the olfactory lobes of the forebrain by means of olfactory tracts.

Burkholderia pseudomallei invades the olfactory nerve and bulb after epithelial injury in mice and causes the formation of multinucleated giant glial cells in vitro.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
The infectious disease melioidosis is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. Melioidosis is characterised by high mortality and morbidity and can involve the central nervous system (CNS). We have previously discovered that B. pseudomallei can

Dopaminergic modulation of odor responses by local interneurons in the olfactory bulb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The olfactory bulb is one of the few regions in the brain where dopamine is provided locally by an intrinsic population of GABAergic interneurons but their role in processing of sensory information remains ambiguous.

Olfactory Regeneration with Nasally Administered Murine Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Olfactory Epithelium Damaged Mice

open access: yesCells, 2023
In this study, we aimed to determine whether nasally administered murine adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) could support olfactory regeneration in vivo.
