The ultimate goal is to use this mouse-tissue model of olfactory sensory neurons as a pathway to developing a human organoid that can be used to screen drugs to treat people whose sense of smell is ...

Researchers have identified a new brain pathway in mice that links the smell of food to feelings of fullness—offering insight into how scent influences appetite.

No more hunger after cooking? A newly identified network of nerve cells is responsible, a research group at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research has discovered in mice.

Using a newly devised, three-dimensional model to study the regeneration of nerve tissue in the nose, researchers at Tufts ...

Find out what you need to know about your olfactory nerve and its function. Learn signs of a problem and how to protect your olfactory nerve.

While the olfactory pathway appears to be a likely route of exposure the researchers noted that other potential entry routes, including through blood circulation, may also be involved.

The researchers’ finding suggests the possibility of designing pharmaceutical or genetic therapies to turn on new neuron production in old or injured brains.

Bottomline The discovery of microplastics in the olfactory bulbs of the human brain marks a significant milestone in understanding the potential health risks associated with plastic pollution.

Researchers have found evidence of microplastics in the olfactory bulbs of the human brain for the first time, after detecting them in the colon and the bloodstream.
