Activation of olfactory receptors on mouse pulmonary macrophages promotes monocyte chemotactic protein-1 production.
BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests that non-olfactory tissues and cells can express olfactory receptors (ORs), however, the exact function of ectopic OR expression remains unknown. We have previously shown in mouse models that a unique cooperation between interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and lipopolysacchar...
