چکیده

Uptake of drugs and other xenobiotics from the nasal cavity and into either the brain or systemic circulation can occur through several different mechanisms, including paracellular transport and movement along primary olfactory nerve axons, which extend from the nasal cavity to the olfactory bulb of the brain. The present study was conducted to expand knowledge on a third means of uptake, namely the expression of drug transporters in the rat nasal epithelium. We used branched DNA technology to compare the level of expression of nine transporters [(equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENT)1 and ENT2; organic cation transporter (OCT)1, 2, and 3; OCTN1; organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP)3; and multidrug resistance (MRP)1 and MRP4] in nasal respiratory mucosa, olfactory mucosa, and olfactory bulb to the level of expression of these transporters in the liver and kidney. Transporters with high expression in the nasal respiratory mucosa or olfactory tissues were immunolocalized by immunohistochemistry. ENT1 and ENT2 expression was relatively high in nasal epithelia and olfactory bulb, which may explain the uptake of intranasally administered nucleoside derivatives observed by other investigators. OATP3 immunoreactivity was high in olfactory epithelium and olfactory nerve bundles, which suggests that substrates transported by OATP3 may be candidates for intranasal administration.

Open housing drives the expression of immune response genes in the nasal mucosa, but not the olfactory bulb

Nasal mucosa and olfactory bulb are separated by the cribriform plate which is perforated by olfactory nerves. We have previously demonstrated that the cribriform plate is permissive for T cells and monocytes and that viruses can enter the bulb upon intranasal injection by axonal transportation. Therefore, we hypothesized that nasal mucosa and olfactory bulb are equipped to deal with constant i...
