A drop of stem cells restores mice’s sense of smell.
A team of researchers has
restored the sense of smell in a group of mice
by grafting stem cells into the rodents’ noses according to new results published in
Stem Cell Reports
. The stem cells, which are known as “globose basal cells,” are precursors to fully developed olfactory neurons.
Once implanted into mice through a simple “nose drop delivery,” the stem cells matured into working neurons and connected to the animal’s brains
, restoring their sense of smell, which had been previously rendered nonfunctional by a mutation
.
Whether the treatment will work in humans will likely depend on whether scientists can find a source of similar precursor cells to use for the grafting procedure.
