Effects of Transforming Growth Factor-β1 on Human Vocal Fold Fibroblasts
1 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We studied the effect of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta on immortalized human vocal fold fibroblasts. METHODS: Normal human vocal fold fibroblasts were subjected to sequential lentiviral transduction with genes for human telomerase (hTERT) and SV40 large T antigen in order to produce an "immortalized" cell line of normal phenotype. After confirmation of vocal fold fibroblast transfection, these...
