How Smell Regulates Metabolism: The Role Of Ectopically Expressed Olfactory Receptors In Lipid and Glucose Homeostasis

Abstract: Olfactory Receptors (ORs) are a large family of G protein coupled receptors predominantly expressed by the main olfactory epithelium at nasal level and are responsible for the generation of smelling sense. Microarray and deep sequencing analyses, however, have demonstrated that ORs are ectopically expressed in various human tissues including testis, kidneys, adipose tissue and liver and their biological functions become to be unrevealed. Molecular and pharmacological approaches have shown that some of these … Show more

“…[6] Further investigations showed a wide distribution of ORs across the human body, such as muscles, adipose tissue, and the kidney, and their involvement in physiological processes. [6][7][8] In a recent Review, Shepard highlights that several ORs are expressed within different parts of the human renal system, which can bind different odorants, such as β-ionone, or α-pinene. Hereby ORs can influence the regulatory function of the nephron, by which the blood pressure or the glucose concentration within the human body can be influenced, which was already shown in mice.…”

“…By OR activation serotonin release was triggered, which was shown to impact the gut mobility and further physiological processes [6] . Further investigations showed a wide distribution of ORs across the human body, such as muscles, adipose tissue, and the kidney, and their involvement in physiological processes [6–8] . In a recent Review, Shepard highlights that several ORs are expressed within different parts of the human renal system, which can bind different odorants, such as β‐ionone, or α‐pinene.…”

“…So zeigten Braun et al., [6] dass die Aktivierung der Geruchsrezeptoren des Gastrointestinaltrakts (GIT) zur Serotonin‐Freisetzung führt, welche Einfluss auf die Motilität des GIT nimmt und darüber hinaus weitere physiologische Prozesse beeinflusst [6] . Auch wurden Geruchsrezeptoren in anderen Organen und Geweben, wie dem Muskel‐ und Fettgewebe und der Niere, nachgewiesen [6–8] . In Mäusen wurde gezeigt, dass renale Geruchsrezeptoren durch Geruchsstoffe wie β‐Ionon oder α‐Pinen aktiviert werden, wodurch die renale Filtration und somit der Blutdruck und die Glukosekonzentration im Blut beeinflusst werden.…”

Beim Menschen können ähnliche Mechanismen angenommen werden.…”
