Research Abstract |
We established the expression of insulin receptor in the olfactory mucosa by immunostaining method. The calcineurin inhibition decreased specifically IRS-2 protein level by 50% in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells, without changing IRS-2 mRNA level, and insulin receptor, insulin-like growth factor-I receptor, IRS-1, PI3K/PDK-1/Akt/GSK-3β and ERK1/ERK2 protein levels. Additionally, we examined olfactory sensation of persons who had the long term exposure of arsenicum. The impaired sense of small was 51%, and the olfactory anesthesia was 22%.
