Popis: Olfactory receptor (OR) genes are extensively distributed throughout the human organism. Although these receptors are predominantly located in the olfactory epithelium, binding between odorant chemicals and corresponding ORs initiates downstream events in other tissues. In particular, exposure to allergen fragrances results in the induction of contact dermatitis. At present, current methodologies are limited in their ability to predict the consequences of fragrancy chemicals on humans. The aim of this study was designed to simulate the
