Novel convolution-based signal processing techniques for an artificial olfactory mucosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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).

Environmental toxicants-induced immune responses in the olfactory mucosa

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
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 ...

Differentiation of human olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells into photoreceptor cells in vitro [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017
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

Olfactory evaluation in obstructive sleep apnoea patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The sense of smell has a high impact on the quality of life. The aim of the present study was to investigate olfactory dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) and correlate the severity of disease with olfactory dysfunction.

Cytokines and olfactory bulb microglia in response to bacterial challenge in the compromised primary olfactory pathway

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2012
Background The primary olfactory pathway is a potential route through which microorganisms from the periphery could potentially access the central nervous system.

Histological markers in nasal mucosa of patients with Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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

Brain delivery of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) following nasal administration to rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The aim of this work was to study in rats the nasal route for the brain delivery of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) neuropeptide. After evaluating VIP stability in solutions obtained from nasal washes, the effect of formulation parameters (pH 4-9,

Synaptophysin and synaptoporin expression in the developing rat olfactory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The expressions of two closely related synaptic vesicle antigens synaptophysin and synaptoporin were examined in the olfactory system of the adult rat and during pre- and postnatal development.

Effect of formaldehyde inhalation on rabbit nasal mucosa: a light microscopic study—an animal model for inhalational irritants on nasal mucosa

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2021
Background Formaldehyde is associated with many adverse health effects and is classified as a human carcinogen. Formaldehyde is highly water-soluble and readily absorbed and metabolized by the respiratory mucosa upon inhalation.
