Nicotine as an odorant : a biochemical and electrophysiological study of receptors for nicotine in the olfactory epithelium of the rat [PDF]
The results suggest that nicotine vapour stimulates an in vitro olfactory preparation in three strains of rat and two strains of mouse, in a manner similar to known odorants.

ABSTRACT Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibits pronounced endotypic heterogeneity, with macrophages serving as key drivers of sustained mucosal inflammation. In this study, we identify S100A9 as a macrophage‐derived alarmin that is markedly elevated in CRSwNP tissues.

Infection control in the brain and the eye
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

The Olfactory Nervous System Of Terrestrial And Aquatic Vertebrates
Animals in their natural milieu are surrounded by odors. These odors are rich source of information, and are perceived by sophisticated olfactory systems, that have evolved over time.

Human brain matters: Navigating the neuropathology of COVID‐19
Severe COVID‐19 is associated with vascular dysregulation and chronic neuroinflammation, leading to axonal injury and neurodegeneration. In long COVID or PASC, persistent alterations in neuroimaging and biofluid biomarkers reflect ongoing neuronal damage and neuroinflammation, contributing to long‐term neurological symptoms including fatigue, cognitive

Expression of adiponectin receptor 1 in olfactory mucosa of mice
S.187-197AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 are receptors for the adipocyte-derived hormone adiponectin, which is an important regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism, and which has also been implicated in the control of food intake and energy homeostasis.

GIP in Cardiovascular and Kidney Disease: From Physiology to Pharmacology
ABSTRACT Aims To provide a comprehensive overview of the cardiovascular and renal effects of glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) by integrating its physiological role with recent human trial data on tirzepatide, the first dual GIP and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist.

Variability in intracellular localization of D‐amino acid oxidase in choroid plexus epithelial cells
D‐amino acid oxidase (DAO) in choroid plexus epithelial cells (CPECs) shows vesicle‐like localization by histological and super‐resolution analyses. DAO colocalizes with peroxisomal, Golgi, endosomal, lysosomal, autophagosomal, and exosomal markers, indicating diverse subcellular distribution. This suggests DAO is transported within CPECs to metabolize

Novel convolution-based processing techniques for application in chemical sensing [PDF]
The electronic nose is a device developed to mimic the human olfactory system. Despite raising interest from applications in the field of medicine, quality control, environmental control and security, such devices remain inferior to their biological ...
