Summary

Platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PREs) show promise for treating traumatic olfactory dysfunction. A single case study suggests PRE nasal injections may further improve smell function after initial platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment.

Olfactory Receptors: Location and Structure

The process of olfaction, also known as the sense of smell, is a sophisticated chemical response system. The specialized sensory neurons that facilitate this process, known as olfactory receptor neurons, are situated in an upper segment of the nasal cavity, known as the olfactory epithelium. Olfactory sensory neurons are bipolar, with their dendrites extending from the epithelium's apex into the mucus that lines the nasal cavity. Airborne molecules, when inhaled, traverse the olfactory...
