Functional evidence of multidrug resistance transporters (MDR) in rodent olfactory epithelium. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 P-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.

Olfactory evaluation in obstructive sleep apnoea patients [PDF]
, 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.

Office‐based olfactory mucosa biopsies [PDF]
International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology, 2016 BackgroundRequests from researchers for olfactory mucosal biopsies are increasing as a result of advances in the fields of neuroscience and stem cell biology. Published studies report variable rates of success in obtaining true olfactory tissue, often below 50%.

Antiviral Functions of Type I and Type III Interferons in the Olfactory Epithelium
Biomolecules, 2023 The olfactory neuroepithelium (OE) is one of the few neuronal tissues where environmental pathogens can gain direct access. Despite this vulnerable arrangement, little is known about the protective mechanisms in the OE to prevent viral infection and its ...

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

HISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES OF THE OLFACTORY MUCOSA OF THE RABBIT [PDF]
Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 1955 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. Acid phosphatase and sulfhydryl groups were found to be present in the receptors, and the presence of ...

Single-Cell RNA-Seq Analysis of Olfactory Mucosal Cells of Alzheimer’s Disease Patients
Cells, 2022 Olfaction is orchestrated by olfactory mucosal cells located in the upper nasal cavity. Olfactory dysfunction manifests early in several neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, however, disease-related alterations to the olfactory ...
