Vocal Fold Stem Cells and Their Niche in the Human Vocal Fold
1 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Vocal fold stellate cells (VFSCs) in the maculae flavae have many morphological differences from conventional fibroblasts in the human vocal fold mucosa. It is uncertain whether the VFSCs are derived from the same embryonic source as conventional fibroblasts. The purpose of this study was to investigate the stemness of the VFSCs and whether the pericellular matrices in the maculae flavae are a...
