Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) in response to a long-term low-level chemical exposure is as yet an unclarified disorder. To determine the role of olfactory function in the induction of MCS, immunocytochemical analysis of the main olfactory bulb (MOB) was performed after exposure of mice to low levels of formaldehyde. A long-term exposure resulted in an increase in the number of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunopositive periglomerular cells and may affect the neuronal function of the MOB.
