Abstract
The prevalence of COVID-19 has drawn increasing attention to olfactory dysfunction among researchers. Olfactory dysfunction manifests in various clinical types, influenced by numerous pathogenic factors. Despite this diversity, the underlying pathogenesis remains largely elusive, contributing to a lack of standardized treatment approaches. However, the potential regeneration of olfactory neurons within the nasal cavity presents a promising avenue for addressing olfactory dysfunction effectively. Our review aims to delve into the current research landscape and treatment modalities concerning olfactory dysfunction, emphasizing etiology, pathogenesis, clinical interventions, and the role of stem cells in regenerating olfactory nerves. Through this comprehensive examination, we aim to provide valuable insights into understanding the onset, progression, and treatment of olfactory dysfunction diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The literature regarding clinical olfaction, olfactory loss, and olfactory dysfunction has expanded rapidly over the past two decades, with an exponential rise in the past year. There is substantial variability in the quality of this literature and a need to consolidate and critically review the evidence. It is with that aim that we have gathered experts from around the world to produce this International Consensus on Allergy and Rhinology: Olfaction (ICAR:O). METHODS Using previously described methodology, specific topics were developed relating to olfaction. Each topic was assigned a literature review, evidence-based review, or evidence-based review with recommendations format as dictated by available evidence and scope within the ICAR:O document. Following iterative reviews of each topic, the ICAR:O document was integrated and reviewed by all authors for final consensus. RESULTS The ICAR:O document reviews nearly 100 separate topics within the realm of olfaction, including diagnosis, epidemiology, disease burden, diagnosis, testing, etiology, treatment, and associated pathologies. CONCLUSION This critical review of the existing clinical olfaction literature provides much needed insight and clarity into the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with olfactory dysfunction, while also clearly delineating gaps in our knowledge and evidence base that we should investigate further.

Front Neurol 2020; 11:569333. [PMID: 33193009 PMCID: PMC7649754 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2020.569333] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The loss of the senses of smell (anosmia) and taste (ageusia) are rather common disorders, affecting up to 20% of the adult population. Yet, this condition has not received the attention it deserves, most probably because per se such a disorder is not life threatening. However, loss of olfactory function significantly reduces the quality of life of the affected patients, leading to dislike in food and insufficient, exaggerated or unbalanced food intake, unintentional exposure to toxins such as household gas, social isolation, depression, and an overall insecurity. Not only is olfactory dysfunction rather prevalent in the healthy population, it is, in many instances, also a correlate or an early indicator of a panoply of diseases. Importantly, olfactory dysfunction is linked to the two most prominent neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. Anosmia and hyposmia (reduced sense of smell) affect a majority of patients years before the onset of cognitive or motor symptoms, establishing olfactory dysfunction as early biomarker that can enable earlier diagnosis and preventative treatments. In the current health crisis caused by SARS-CoV2, anosmia and dysgeusia as early-onset symptoms in virus-positive patients may prove to be highly relevant and crucial for pre-symptomatic Covid-19 detection from a public health perspective, preceding by days the more classical respiratory tract symptoms such as cough, tightness of the chest or fever. Thus, the olfactory system seems to be at the frontline of pathologic assault, be it through pathogens or insults that can lead to or at least associate with neurodegeneration. The aim of this review is to assemble current knowledge from different medical fields that all share a common denominator, olfactory/gustatory dysfunction, and to distill overarching etiologies and disease progression mechanisms.

Tumour necrosis factor alpha and interleukin-5 inhibit olfactory regeneration via apoptosis of olfactory sphere cells in mice models of allergic rhinitis. Clin Exp Allergy 2019; 49:1139-1149. [PMID: 30980570 DOI: 10.1111/cea.13401] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2018] [Revised: 04/02/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Olfactory dysfunction is frequently experienced by patients with allergic rhinitis. It is thought to result from structural and functional changes occurring in the olfactory mucosa caused by inflammation. However, the current understanding of the pathophysiology of olfactory dysfunction in allergic rhinitis remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism by which the olfactory neural cells are damaged in allergic rhinitis. METHODS Olfactory sphere cells (OSCs) were established after dissociation and serial cultures of cells from the mouse olfactory mucosa. Viability and proliferation of OSCs were compared between control and allergic rhinitis mice models, and olfactory stem cell markers were analysed in vivo. To elucidate which cytokines have an inhibitory effect on OSCs, viability and apoptotic markers of OSCs were investigated. RESULTS Olfactory sphere cells were successfully isolated from the olfactory mucosa of mice, and these cells expressed markers of neural stem cells. To investigate the neural differentiation, we performed the immunocytochemical staining and found significantly elevated expressions of Tuji1, GFAP and O4 on OSCs. On the comparison of the characteristics of OSCs between control and allergic rhinitis model, we detected significantly fewer neurospheres, reduced clonogenic capacity and decreased expression of olfactory neural stem cell markers in allergic rhinitis model. When OSCs were treated with several major allergic cytokines were treated on OSCs, only TNF-α showed an inhibitory effect on OSCs. Interestingly, IL-5 had an inhibitory effect on the viability of OSCs in combination with TNF-α, whereas IL-5 alone does not have an effect. Moreover, TNF-α combined with IL-5 significantly increased the apoptotic expression, compared with TNF-α or IL-5 alone. Additionally, allergic rhinitis mice models showed the increased apoptotic expression. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Allergic rhinitis mice models showed lower expression of OSCs, and TNF-α combined with IL-5 had an apoptotic effect on OSCs. Therefore, these cytokines may be therapeutic targets for olfactory dysfunction in patients with allergic rhinitis.
