Olfactory epithelium cells follow this pattern.
Not exact matches
However, two types of
cells in the
olfactory epithelium (specialized tissue responsible for sense of smell), are mixed together and form a mosaic pattern despite expressing different types of cadherins.
These
cells created a biased mosaic pattern corresponding to the pattern in the
olfactory epithelium.
Olfactory cells in the nose are unusual in that they are part of the body's outer layer, or
epithelium, but also part of the nervous system, incorporating neurons that connect directly with the smell centers in the brain.
The nose is lined with sensory tissue, the
olfactory epithelium, that contains various types of
cells, all of which arise from
olfactory stem
cells (green).
(B) In situ hybridization reveals Lcn16 is expressed in glandular tissue of the VNO and (C) Lcn17 is expressed in
cells within the main
olfactory epithelium.
A new study from the labs of Yiqun Yu and Hongmeng Yu (Fudan University, Shanghai, China) sought to uncover the role of Notch signaling in the regulation of
olfactory epithelium (OE) progenitor / stem
cells.
The whole OM samples, including the main
olfactory epithelium and underlying lamina propria, non-neuronal supporting
cells, glandular tissue and blood vessels with blood [23], yielded 46.4 million (± 4.3 million) fragments on average (Table 1).
These viruses appear to directly injure the
olfactory epithelium, the tissue that contains the smell receptor
cells.
Your doctor will evaluate whether you have a physical blockage that prevents odors form reaching your
olfactory epithelium, the part of the nose that contains the
cells that actually help the brain recognize odors.
