Researchers identified a group of epithelial cells in the mouse nose that are capable of responding to allergens directly and also to ATP released in response to allergens. When exposed to allergens, ...

The innate immune response plays a crucial role in maintaining lung and nasal health by providing the first line of defense against pathogens and environmental insults. Epithelial cells in the ...

The study focused on the early impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on human nasal epithelial cells (NECs). Epithelial cells, abundant throughout our bodies, play crucial roles in bodily functions and ...

showed that children's nasal cells fought off the virus quickly, while this ability weakened with age. The nasal epithelial cells (NECs)Â from older adults had more virus and showed more damage.

Using a transgenic fruit fly model, researchers demonstrate how epithelial barriers are maintained in living organisms despite high levels of cell turnover and death. A study shows gamma-delta T cells ...

Caption The research team induced maturation in long-term expandable organoids and generated nasal, airway and alveolar organoids that contain all major epithelial cell populations in the human ...

Multiciliated epithelial cells are the main site for SARS-CoV-2 replication and shedding in nasal respiratory epithelium (A) Schematic image depicting relative levels and tissue distributions of ...

A simple, noninvasive nasal swab identified a predominance of T2-low asthma subtypes in racial and ethnic minority pediatric ...

A further barrier to nasal delivery is the existence of tight junctions between epithelial cells in the mucous membranes inside the nose, which can prevent the penetration of large molecules such as ...
