The Effects of the Levels of Hypoxia in the Olfactory Nervous System in Mouse Model.

Our findings suggest that IH damages the olfactory neuroepithelium and brain tissue in mouse model. The activity of olfactory marker genes and neurogenesis in the olfactory neuroepithelium were decreased. The levels of oxygen may be affect changes in the olfactory neuroepithelium. The olfactory ensheathing cell may be a major factor in the recovery of the olfactory neuroepithelium.
