Effects of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor on Rat Vocal Fold Fibroblasts
1 Oct 2010
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The overarching goal of this line of research is to translate basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) treatment for vocal fold scarring into practical clinical use. In a previous canine investigation, we demonstrated that bFGF improves phonation threshold pressure, mucosal wave amplitude, and histologic measures in vocal folds treated after injury. In the present study, we studied the effects of bFGF on...
