Project description:The purpose of this study is to investigate if acute mucosal dehydration as a funcition of low relative humidty environment impacts the vocal folds at the mRNA level. Rabbits were used as animal model to enable a systematic and rigorous assessment of the pathobiology of vocal fold hydration since they can be manipulated in a physiologically realistic manner. We anticipate that the results of this study will help to elucidate the effects of altered mucosal hydration state in response to low ambient humidity on vocal fold epithelium, lamina propria and muscle tissue at the transcriptome level. Together with cellular, structural, and functional techniques that are part of this project, we expect to provide validated scientific recommendations on the adverse effects of mucosal dehydration and the therapeutic benefits of hydration.

Project description:Voice disorders are an important human health condition. Hydration is a commonly recommended preventive measure for voice disorders though it is unclear how vocal fold dehydration, is harmful at the cellular level. Airway surface dehydration can result from exposure to low humidity air. Here we have used a recurring 8-hour low humidity exposure over 15 days to mimic an occupational exposure to a low humidity environment. Exposure to moderate humidity was the control condition. Full thickness soft-tissue samples, including the vocal folds and surrounding laryngeal tissue, were collected for molecular analysis. RT-qPCR demonstrated a significant upregulation of MUC4 (mucin 4) and SCL26A9 (chloride channel) and a large fold-change though statistically non-significant upregulation of SCNNA1 (epithelial sodium channel). Proteomic analysis demonstrated differential regulation of proteins clustering into prospective functional groups of muscle structure and function, oxidative stress response, and the protein chaperonin stress response. Together, the data demonstrate that recurring exposure to low humidity is sufficient to induce both transcriptional and translational level changes in laryngeal tissue and suggest that low humidity exposure induces cellular stress at the level of the vocal folds.

Project description:Older subjects are more prone to develop systemic dehydration. Systemic dehydration has implications for vocal fold biology by affecting gene and protein expression. The interaction of hydration status and age has not been investigated in the context of vocal fold biology. We used comparative proteomics to analyze the vocal fold proteome of 6.5-month-old and over 3-year-old rabbits under water ad libitum or water volume restriction protocol.
Young and old rabbits (n= 22) were either euhydrated (water ad libitum) or dehydrated by water volume restriction. Dehydration was confirmed by body weight loss of -5.4% and -4.6% in young and old groups, respectively, and a 1.7-fold increase of kidney renin gene expression in the young rabbits. LC-MS/MS identified 2,286 proteins in the rabbit vocal folds of young and old rabbits combined. Of these, 177, 169, and 81 proteins were significantlyaffected by age, hydration status, or the interaction of both factors, respectively. Comparative proteomics revealed a higher number of proteins differentially regulated in the vocal folds of older dehydrated rabbits compared to older euhydrated, and when compared to younger rabbits, regardless of hydration status. These proteins are predominantly related to structural components of the extracellular matrix and muscle layer, suggesting a disturbance in the viscoelastic properties of aging vocal fold tissue, especially when subjected to systemic dehydration.

Project description:We used microarrays to characterize transcriptome profiles of rat vocal fold tissue following surgical injury (vs. naive tissue); rat vocal fold fibroblasts harvested from scar tissue at the 60 d time point (vs. naive fibroblasts); rat vocal fold scar fibroblasts treated with siRNA against the collagen chaperone protein rat gp46 (vs. scramble siRNA). Adult Fischer 344 rat vocal fold tissue was harvested at 3, 14, and 60 days following surgical injury (control = age-matched naive tissue); rat vocal fold scar fibroblasts were obtained via explant culture of tissue obtained 60 days following surgical injury and harvested at 80% confluence during passage 1 (control = age-matched naive rat vocal fold fibroblasts); rat vocal fold scar fibroblasts were treated for 1 h with 50 nM liposome-delivered siRNA against rat gp46 when 80% confluent at passage 1, cultured for an additional 24 h in fresh media, then harvested (control = rat vocal fold scar fibroblasts treated with 50 nM liposome-delivered scramble siRNA).

Project description:Reinke’s edema is a cigarette associated, benign, mostly bilateral lesion of the vocal folds leading to dysphonia and dyspnea. Until today information about pathophysiology is only scarce, treatment is only surgical. To explore the pathophysiology of Reinke’s edema, we exposed near primary human vocal fold fibroblasts to cigarette smoke extract enriched medium or air bubbled control for 24 hrs. followed by a proteomic analysis. Proteomic analyses revealed an increase of proteins involved in oxidative stress response. We furthermore found that a significant number of essential extracellular matrix proteins was altered by culturing human VFF with CSE enriched medium: UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase, a protein involved in hyaluronan synthesis was upregulated, while the expression of several fibrillar collagen types was significantly reduced. The current findings corroborate previous studies but revealed new insights in possible disease mechanisms of Reinke’s edema too. We postulate that changes in the composition -reduction of collagen fibrils, increase of hyaluronan- of the vocal folds’ ECM may lead to the clinical findings.

Project description:Vocal cord healing is a dynamic process, and many genes and proteins are involved, which play varying roles at different regeneration stages after injury. Previous studies have shown that inflammatory responses occur at the early stage of vocal cord injury, where the fibroblasts proliferate exuberantly with intensive secretion and deposition of ECM. These activities reach the peak at 3-7 days and their intensity begins to decline 15 days later. A study based on the dermal system has shown that ECM remodeling during the repair of injury can last for several months. However, few studies have been conducted as to the dynamic changes of gene expressions and signaling pathway during the healing process of vocal cord injury. Plotting these changes will facilitate the understanding about the physiological changes during healing and the identification of key time points and target genes in fibrosis formation.
