PELOAcademy | Human Respiratory Tissue Models to study Odorant Metabolism
presented by Dr. rer. nat. Maria Steinke, UK Würzburg, Klinik und Poliklinik für HNO-Krankheiten, plastische und ästhetische Operationen und Fraunhofer-Institut für Silicatforschung ISC, Translationszentrum für Regenerative Therapien, Würzburg
Nasal xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (XMEs) are important for the sense of smell. They protect the nasal tissue from potentially harmful volatile compounds and can influence odorant availability and quality. We cultured primary nasal epithelial cells and fibroblasts at the air-liquid interface to obtain three-dimensional human respiratory tissue models.
Join this webinar to - learn how our respiratory tissue models are built and characterized - find out if the respiratory mucosa contributes to food odorant metabolism through XME activity - discuss human airway tissue models to reduce animal experiments
