Research Abstract |
1. Caloric restriction exacerbated the age-related neuroepithelial degeneration in the mouse olfactory mucosa and also worsened the regeneration of the olfactory neuroepithelium after injury. The downregulation of proliferative activity in neuroepithelium by caloric restriction appeared to play an important role in the pathogenesis. 2. The immune model of postviral olfactory disorder (PVOD) was developed in mice using Poly(I:C), a synthetic analog of viral double-stranded RNA. The analyses suggested that the secondary damage caused by the neutrophil-mediated innate immune response plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PVOD. 3. The analyses of estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) -deficient mice suggested that estrogen plays a role in the homeostasis of the olfactory mucosa through ERbeta. 4. FAT-1 mice demonstrated better neuroepithelical regeneration after injury, suggesting that the tissue fatty acid is associated with the regeneration of the olfactory neuroepithelium.
