SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether the volume and morphology of the olfactory bulb are effective in the occurrence of anosmia in patients after COVID-19 infection. METHODS: The olfactory bulbus volume was calculated by examining the brain magnetic resonance imaging of cases with...
SUMMARY: The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is an accessory organ involved on the olfactory pathway, that detects pheromones and emits signals in order to modulate social and reproductive behavior. The VNO stem cells replace neurons throughout life. The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize cells de...
Abstract Introduction: Olfactory ensheathing cell is a unique kind of glia cells, which can promote axon growth. Little is known about the differences between olfactory mucosa olfactory ensheathing cells and olfactory bulb olfactory ensheathing cells in the capability to promote nerve regeneration. Obj...
As primeiras células responsáveis pela percepção olfatória são os neurônios olfatórios (OSNs) presentes no epitélio olfatório (EO) da cavidade nasal, que reconhecem moléculas voláteis presentes no ar, denominadas odorantes, através de receptores específicos. Diferentemente de neurônios do ...
The gross morphometric features of mammalian olfactory system components show variations that may be attributed to dietary and ecological factors. We analyzed volumes and linear dimensions of olfactory brain components (OBC) namely, olfactory bulb (OB), olfactory tract (OT) and olfactory stria (OS) in an...
Objetivou-se avaliar características quali - quantitativas da carcaça em machos Nelore, submetidos ao bloqueio dos ductos incisivos no período pré puberal. Além disso, objetivou-se avaliar as concentrações séricas de testosterona e do hormônio do crescimento semelhante a insulina do tipo I (IGF-...
RESUMEN La disfunción olfatoria es una patología frecuente que trae consigo una disminución importante en la calidad de vida de los pacientes y que incluso conlleva una mortalidad aumentada respecto a la población general. Sin embargo, es una condición subdiagnosticada, ya sea por desconocimiento de...
There are few studies of infection by rabies virus in the olfactory bulb (OB). This work was carried out with the purpose of establishing the time required to detect rabies antigens in the OB of mouse, after the intramuscular inoculation of the virus and to evaluate the effect of the infection on the exp...
