Olfactory epithelial horizonal basal cells : an assessment of stem cell candidacy and behavioural regulation in vivo and in vitro
In the olfactory epithelium (OE), new olfactory receptor neurons (ORNS) are continually generated throughout mammalian adulthood. Given this substantial neuronal turnover, a stem cell is proposed to reside within the basal compartment of the OE, which generates ORNs on demand when stimulated by c...
