Glomus cells are very similar structurally to neurons, and they are indeed derived from the neural crest, while the glomus cells of type II are similar in function to neuroglia.

Vasopressin has been found to inhibit the response of glomus cells to hypoxia, presumably because the usual response to hypoxia is vasodilatation, which in case of hypovolemia should be avoided.
43.
Plants of the Rhynie chert from the Lower Devonian ( 400 m . yrs ago ) were found to contain structures resembling vesicles and spores of present " Glomus " species.
44.
The signalling within the chemoreceptors is thought to be mediated by the release of neurotransmitters by the glomus cells, including dopamine, noradrenaline, acetylcholine, substance P, vasoactive intestinal peptide and enkephalins.
45.
A few other cases of malignant glomus tumors have been reported in the literature usually occur in the older age group, and have been described at several locations, primarily the soft tissues and gastrointestinal tracts.
46.
""'Rhizophagus irregularis " "'( previously known as " Glomus intraradices " ) is an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus used as a soil inoculant in agriculture and horticulture.
47.
As a neurologist, he treated conditions of the ear and skull base including hearing loss, ear infections, facial palsy, dizziness and skull base tumors such as acoustic neuromas ( vestibular schwannomas ) and glomus tumors.
48.
Malignant glomus tumors have been subdivided into three categories based on their histologic appearance : locally infiltrative glomus tumors ( LIGT ), glomangiosarcomas arising in benign glomus tumors ( GABG ), and glomangiosarcomas arising de novo ( GADN ).
