Differentiation of human olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells into photoreceptor cells in vitro [PDF]
AIM: To investigate whether the human olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs) can differentiate into photoreceptor cells in vitro. METHODS: Through the olfactory mucosa adherent method, olfactory mucosa was isolated, cultured and identified in

Profiling of olfactory receptor gene expression in whole human olfactory mucosa. [PDF]
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 mucosa in herpes simplex encephalitis. [PDF]
The olfactory mucosa was examined in three patients dying from herpes simplex encephalitis. It showed changes attributed to infection by the herpes simplex virus. It is suggested that in some patients encephalitis may be a complication of infection of the olfactory mucosa.
