Endothelin increases the proliferation of rat olfactory mucosa cells
The olfactory mucosa holds olfactory sensory neurons directly in contact with an aggressive environment. In order to maintain its integrity, it is one of the few neural zones which are continuously renewed during the whole animal life.

Secreted factors from olfactory mucosa cells expanded as free-floating spheres increase neurogenesis in olfactory bulb neurosphere cultures [PDF]
Background The olfactory epithelium is a neurogenic tissue comprising a population of olfactory receptor neurons that are renewed throughout adulthood by a population of stem and progenitor cells. Because of their relative accessibility compared to intra-

Environmental toxicants-induced immune responses in the olfactory mucosa
Olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) are the receptor cells for the sense of smell. Although cell bodies are located in the olfactory mucosa of the nasal cavity, OSN axons directly project to the olfactory bulb that is a component of the central nervous ...

HISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES OF THE OLFACTORY MUCOSA OF THE RABBIT [PDF]
1. Tests of the olfactory mucosa of rabbits by five different methods indicate that cholinesterase is probably not present in any of the cells of this tissue. 2. Alkaline phosphatase and phosphamidase were not found in the olfactory receptors. 3.

Methods of olfactory ensheathing cell harvesting from the olfactory mucosa in dogs. [PDF]
Olfactory ensheathing cells are thought to support regeneration and remyelination of damaged axons when transplanted into spinal cord injuries. Following transplantation, improved locomotion has been detected in many laboratory models and in dogs with ...

Isolation and characterization of olfactory stem cells from canine olfactory mucosa [PDF]
Olfactory stem cells have great potential in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and they are good candidates for cell therapy due to the easy accessibility of olfactory mucosa. The main objectives of this study were isolation, proliferation and characterization of olfactory mucosa stem cells that were further differentiated into olfactory ...

Histological markers in nasal mucosa of patients with Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Neuropathological changes such as dystrophic neurites and the presence of abnormal tau protein in the olfactory system, including primary sensory cells and nerve fibres have previously been demonstrated in nasal mucosa tissue of patients with Alzheimer's

Novel convolution-based signal processing techniques for an artificial olfactory mucosa [PDF]
As our understanding of the human olfactory system has grown, so has our ability to design artificial devices that mimic its functionality, so called electronic noses (e-noses).
