Pharmacology of Mammalian Olfactory Receptors

, 2013
Mammalian species have evolved a large and diverse number of odorant receptors (ORs). These proteins comprise the largest family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) known, amounting to ~1,000-different receptors in the rodent. From the perspective of olfactory coding, the availability of such a vast number of chemosensory receptors poses several ...

Determining the Minimal Clinically Important Difference of the 40‐Item Smell Identification Test in People With Cystic Fibrosis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) are highly prevalent among people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) and negatively impact quality of life. The 40‐item Smell Identification Test (SIT) is widely used to assess psychophysical olfaction, but a CF‐specific minimal clinically important difference (MCID) has not been ...

Quadruple context-free L-System mathematical tools as origin of biological evolution

, 2010
It is well known that A, T, G, C annealed together early in evolution and the long stretch of DNA was found which ultimately resulted into chromosomes of different organisms.

Extent of Sinus Surgery Is Associated With Disease Control in Biologic Treated Type 2 Dominant CRS

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A greater benefit of biologics is observed after surgery in Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the extent of surgery remains undefined in many studies. This study evaluated the extent of surgery on disease control in patients receiving biologics for refractory Type 2 dominant CRSwNP.

Sustaining olfaction at low salinities: mapping ion flux associated with the olfactory sensilla of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus

, 2000
To test the hypothesis of a diffusion-generated, ionic/osmotic microenvironment within the olfactory sensilla (aesthetases), flux gradients of Ca2+ and K+ associated with the external surfaces of these sensilla were spatially mapped using self ...

Evolution and speciation [PDF]

, 2008
Charles Darwin is the father of evolution as we know it today. In his book “The origin of species” he states that new species originate from ancestral species that change over time, and that the mechanism of the change is natural selection.

Lost and Found: Is Olfactory Recovery More Promising After COVID‐19 Than Other Causes, Even 2 Years Later?

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Olfactory dysfunction is a hallmark feature of COVID‐19, yet the potential for recovery with long‐standing COVID‐19‐related smell loss (CRSL) remains uncertain, particularly when treatment is initiated years later. This study evaluated olfactory outcomes in patients with CRSL compared with non‐COVID‐19‐related smell loss (non‐CRSL),

Subjective Olfactory Impairment in a Patient Undergoing Anti-Obesity Pharmacotherapy: A Case of Symptom–Test Discrepancy

Life
With the growing use of anti-obesity medications (AOMs), particularly glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, interest in their impact on chemosensory function has increased.
