These cells transmit messages to the brain, where specific smells or tastes are identified. 1  Olfactory (smell nerve) cells are stimulated by the odors around usthe fragrance from a rose, the smell of bread baking. 2  Gustatory (taste nerve) cells are clustered in the taste buds of the mouth and throat. Olfactory (smell nerve) cells are stimulated by the odors around usthe fragrance from a rose, the smell of bread baking. 2  These nerve cells are found in a tiny patch of tissue high up in the nose, and they connect directly to the brain.
Ciliopathies are mainly of genetic origin and reflect a major cause for loss of smell and taste. Correction of defects in these signaling pathways will prove of value to correct the sensory defects present in these patients. Ciliopathies are a major cause of loss of taste and smell which has not been well defined. Cilia are the anatomical portion of both taste buds and olfactory receptor cells which provide the initial step (the âbusiness endâ) of both taste and smell perception. (See June, Whatâs New.)
