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 ...

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

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.

Serum-Free Medium Provides a Clinically Relevant Method to Increase Olfactory Ensheathing Cell Numbers in Olfactory Mucosa Cell Culture

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2007
There is much evidence to suggest that transplanted olfactory ensheathing cells may ameliorate the functional deficits associated with injuries to the nervous system, especially the spinal cord.

Effect of copper nanoparticles and copper ions on the architecture of rainbow trout olfactory mucosa

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Olfactory epithelial cells are in direct contact with myriad environmental contaminants which may consequently disrupt their structure and function. Copper ions (Cu2+) and copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) are two types of olfactory neurotoxicants.

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.

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,
