Profiling of olfactory receptor gene expression in whole human olfactory mucosa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Olfactory perception is mediated by a large array of olfactory receptor genes. The human genome contains 851 olfactory receptor gene loci. More than 50% of the loci are annotated as nonfunctional due to frame-disrupting mutations.

Olfactory Ensheathing Cell Tumor Arising from the Olfactory Mucosa [PDF]
Case Reports in Medicine, 2012 We report a rare case of olfactory ensheathing cell tumor. A female presented a large soft mass extending medially to the olfactory cleft and laterally to the middle meatus in the left nasal cavity.

Isolation and Characterization of Cat Olfactory Ecto-Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Animals, 2022 The olfactory mucosa contains olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (OE-MSCs) which show stemness features, multipotency capabilities, and have a therapeutic potential. The OE-MSCs have already been collected and isolated from various mammals. The aim of

Olfactory ensheathing cells in facial nerve regeneration
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2020 Introduction: Olfactory ensheathing cell is a unique kind of glia cells, which can promote axon growth. Little is known about the differences between olfactory mucosa olfactory ensheathing cells and olfactory bulb olfactory ensheathing cells in the ...

Open housing drives the expression of immune response genes in the nasal mucosa, but not the olfactory bulb. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Nasal mucosa and olfactory bulb are separated by the cribriform plate which is perforated by olfactory nerves. We have previously demonstrated that the cribriform plate is permissive for T cells and monocytes and that viruses can enter the bulb upon ...

Primary Olfactory Ensheathing Cell Culture from Human Olfactory Mucosa Specimen
Bio-Protocol, 2017 The human olfactory mucosa is located in the middle and superior turbinates, and the septum of nasal cavity. Olfactory mucosa plays an important role in detection of odours and it is also the only nervous tissue that is exposed to the external ...

Fibroblasts isolated from human middle turbinate mucosa cause neural progenitor cells to differentiate into glial lineage cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) is a potential therapy for repair of spinal cord injury (SCI). Autologous transplantation of OECs has been reported in clinical trials.

The Olfactory Mucosa of the Sheep [PDF]
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1970 The olfactory mucosa of the sheep was studied by light and electron microscopy. The epithelium conforms to the general vertebrate pattern and consists of olfactory receptor cells, supporting, and basal cells. The free edge of the epithelium is made up of long microvilli from the supporting cells and olfactory rods of the receptor cells, each carrying ...
