Could Cells from Your Nose Fix Your Heart? Transplantation of Olfactory Stem Cells in a Rat Model of Cardiac Infarction

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
This study examines the hypothesis that multipotent olfactory mucosal stem cells could provide a basis for the development of autologous cell transplant therapy for the treatment of heart attack.

Functional evidence of multidrug resistance transporters (MDR) in rodent olfactory epithelium.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundP-glycoprotein (Pgp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) are membrane transporter proteins which function as efflux pumps at cell membranes and are considered to exert a protective function against the entry of xenobiotics. While

Towards a truly biomimetic olfactory microsystem: an artificial olfactory mucosa

open access: yesIET Seminar on MEMS Sensors and Actuators, 2006
Today, the capability of the human olfactory system is still, in many ways, superior to that of the electronic nose. Although electronic noses are often compared with their biological counterpart, they neither mimic its neural architecture nor achieve its discriminating performance.

Predominance of In‐Field Recurrence After Radiotherapy for Sinonasal Cancer: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sinonasal malignancies (SNM) are rare, heterogeneous tumors with poor prognosis. There is an unmet need to improve treatment outcomes. Despite advances in imaging and molecular classification, optimal curative radiotherapy (RT) strategies remain undefined.

Engineered 3D cultured human nasal mucosa mesenchymal stem cell derived sEVs for targeted brain‐derived neurotrophic factor delivery to enhance neurogenesis and attenuate brain damage

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study successfully developed and evaluated BDNF@RVG‐sEVs, a novel brain‐targeted nanomedicine based on hnmMSC‐derived sEVs, designed to overcome the BBB and enhance neurorestoration. By integrating RVG for enhanced brain targeting and encapsulating BDNF for potent neurorepair, our system address the key limitations of the conventional sEVs and ...

Unique Features of Nasal Airway and Airflow Improvement Post‐Dupilumab: A Computational Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The impact of dupilumab on nasal airway patency and airflow is not uniform. It is more pronounced in the middle and superior, but not inferior meatus. These unique regional changes significantly correlate with and potentially drive the improvement in patient symptoms.

Exocrine Gland Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: Pathophysiology, Clinical Manifestations, and Therapeutic Perspectives—A Narrative Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Isolation of human adult olfactory sphere cells as a cell source of neural progenitors

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2015
Olfactory stem cells are generated from olfactory mucosa. Various culture conditions generate olfactory stem cells that differ according to species and developmental stage and have different progenitor or stem cell characteristics. Olfactory spheres (OSs)

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Outcomes in Orbit‐Sparing Versus Orbit‐Sacrificing Surgery for Sinonasal Malignancies With Orbital Involvement: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sinonasal malignancies with orbital involvement may be managed with orbit‐sacrificing or orbit‐preserving surgical approaches, with a recent shift towards orbital preservation to reduce postoperative morbidity while maintaining oncological success.
