摘要
Disclosed herein is a method for activating a dormant epithelial stem cell, or population thereof, to a state of multipotency comprising, reducing the level of ΔNp63 in the cell(s). The dormant epithelial stem cell(s) may be a horizontal basal cell (HBC) of the olfactory epithelium and the level of ΔNp63 may be reduced by contacting the cell or population with an effective amount of one or more agents that downmodulate ΔNp63. One example of an agent is an RNAi. Also disclosed is a method for treating olfactory dysfunction in a subject, comprising activating HBCs of the subject by reducing the level of ΔNp63 in one or more HBCs of the subject, to thereby treat the olfactory dysfunction. Activated horizontal basal cell (HBCs) are also disclosed.
