Cytokine and Growth Factor Response in a Rat Model of Radiation Induced Injury to the Submental Muscles
2019-10-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Submental muscles (i.e. mylohyoid and geniohyoid) play a vital role during swallowing, protecting the airway from ingested material. To design therapies to reduce the functional deficits associated with radiation treatment relies in part on our understanding of the changes in the cytokine and growth factor response that can impact muscle function. The purpose of this study is to quantify changes...
