The Journal of General Physiology, 1956 Cross sections of olfactory nerves present a unique appearance. They indicate the presence of large numbers of very small nerve fibers, with a modal diameter of about 0.2 µ and a narrow range for their size variation. From one side of the nasal septum of a pig the yield of fibers was estimated at 6,000,000; the number arising from the turbinates would ...

Nicotinic cholinergic regulation of olfactory bulb blood flow response in aged rats
Journal of Physiological Sciences, 2023 In our previous research, we had demonstrated the crucial role of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in potentiation of the olfactory bulb blood flow response to olfactory stimulation in adult rats. The present study examined the effects

Intercellular interactions in the mammalian olfactory nerve [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2003 AbstractThe small, unmyelinated axons of olfactory sensory neurons project to the olfactory bulb in densely packed fascicles, an arrangement conducive to axo‐axonal interactions. We recently demonstrated ephaptic interactions between these axons in the olfactory nerve layer, the layer of the olfactory bulb in which the axon fascicles interweave and ...

Cranial nerve I: clinical anatomy and beyond
Russian Open Medical Journal, 2018 Examination of the cranial nerves is an important part of complete neurological assessment of the patient. With the development of imaging techniques, there is an increased awareness of the possible anatomical variations and anomalies and although there ...

Co-transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells from mucosa and bulb origin enhances functional recovery after peripheral nerve lesion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) represent an interesting candidate for cell therapy and could be obtained from olfactory mucosa (OM-OECs) or olfactory bulbs (OB-OECs).

Subjective and Objective Assessments of Post-traumatic Olfactory Dysfunction
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Introduction: Traumatic brain injuries are the most common cause of olfactory dysfunction. Deficits in olfaction may be conductive or neurosensory in nature, with varying degrees of impairment resulting in a diminished quality of life and an increased ...

The Potential Therapeutic Applications of Olfactory Ensheathing Cells in Regenerative Medicine
Cell Transplantation, 2014 Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are unique glia cells restricted to the primary olfactory system including the olfactory mucosa, olfactory nerve, and the outer nerve layer of the olfactory bulb.

ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC OBSERVATIONS OF THE OLFACTORY MUCOSA AND OLFACTORY NERVE [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1957 The olfactory receptor cell is characterized by a distal process (the dendrite) which terminates in the olfactory passage as the olfactory rod. The olfactory rod is provided with numerous cilia which are similar in structure to those seen in other tissues. The central processes of the bipolar cell constitute the fila olfactoria.
