Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived vocal fold mucosa mimics development and responses to smoke exposure

ABSTRACT: Development of treatments for vocal dysphonia has been inhibited by lack of human vocal fold (VF) mucosa models because of difficulty in procuring VF epithelial cells, epithelial cells’ limited proliferative capacity and absence of cell lines. We report development of engineered VF mucosae from hiPSC, transfected via TALEN constructs for green fluorescent protein, that mimic development of VF epithelial cells in utero. Modulation of FGF signaling achieves stratified squamous epithelium from definitive and anterior foregut derived cultures. Robust culturing of these cells on collagen-fibroblast constructs produces three-dimensional models comparable to in vivo VF mucosa. Second, we demonstrate mucosal inflammation upon exposure of these constructs to 5% cigarette smoke extract. Upregulation of pro-inflammatory genes in epithelium and fibroblasts leads to aberrant VF mucosa remodeling. Collectively, our results demonstrate that hiPSC-derived VF mucosa is a versatile tool for future investigation of genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying epithelium-fibroblasts interactions in health and disease.

Introducing a new type of organotypic laryngeal mucosa model

Project description:Research of human vocal fold (VF) biology is hampered by several factors. The sensitive microstructure of the VF mucosa is one of them and limits the in vivo research, as biopsies carry the unbearable risk of scarring. A laryngeal organotypic model consisting of VF epithelial cells and VF fibroblasts (VFF) might overcome some of the limitations. Whereas human VFF are available in several forms, availability of VF epithelial cells is scarce. Buccal mucosa might be a good source, as it is easily accessible, and biopsies heal without scarring. For this project we generated organotypic constructs consisting of immortalized human VF fibroblasts and primary human buccal epithelial cells. The constructs (n = 3) were compared to native laryngeal mucosa on a histological and proteomic level. The engineered constructs reassembled into a mucosa-like structure, after a cultivation period of 35 days. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed a multi-layered stratified epithelium, a collagen type IV positive barrier-like structure resembling the basal membrane, and an underlying layer containing VFF. Proteomic analysis revealed a total number of 1961 proteins. Of these, 83.8% were detected in both native VF and constructs, with only 53 proteins having significantly different abundance. 15.3% of detected proteins were identified in native VF mucosa only, most likely due to endothelial, immune and muscle cells within the VF samples, while 0.9% were found only in the constructs. Based on easily available cell sources, we could demonstrate that our organotypic laryngeal mucosa model shares many characteristics with native VF mucosa. It represents a stable and reproducible in vitro model and offers a wide range of possibilities ranging from the exploration of VF biology to the testing of interventions (e.g. drug testing).

Transcription in wounded rat vocal folds and vocal fold fibroblasts

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).

Comparative Proteomics of PairedVocal Fold and Oral Mucosa Fibroblasts

Project description:Injuries of the vocal folds frequently heal with scar formation, which can have lifelong detrimental impact on voice quality. Current treatments to prevent or resolve scars of the vocal fold mucosa are highly unsatisfactory. In contrast, the adjacent oral mucosa is mostly resistant to scarring. These differences in healing tendency might relate to distinct properties of the fibroblasts populating oral and vocal fold mucosae. We thus established the in vitro cultivation of paired, near-primary vocal fold fibroblasts (VFF) and oral mucosa fibroblasts (OMF) to perform a basic cellular characterization and comparative cellular proteomics. VFF were significantly larger than OMF, proliferated more slowly, and exhibited a sustained TGF-β1-induced elevation of pro-fibrotic interleukin 6. Cluster analysis of the proteomic data revealed distinct protein repertoires specific for VFF and OMF. Further, VFF displayed a broader protein spectrum, particularly a more sophisticated array of factors constituting and modifying the extracellular matrix. Conversely, subsets of OMF-enriched proteins were linked to cellular proliferation, nuclear events, and protection against oxidative stress. Altogether, this study supports the notion that fibroblasts sensitively adapt to the functional peculiarities of their respective anatomical location and presents several molecular targets for further investigation in the context of vocal fold wound healing.

Expression data from rat vocal fold at different periods after vocal fold injury

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.

Modulation of TGF-B1 mediated fibroblast activation in human vocal fold fibroblast cells by Porcine-Derived Lamina Propria Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel

Project description:Vocal folds (VFs) are exposed to external and internal stimuli that may cause damage leading to structural alterations and compromised function. Extracellular matrix (ECM)-based biomaterials have been explored as bioactive scaffolds to tissue repair. An injectable form of the VF-ECM scaffold would be an ideal biomaterial for minimally invasive delivery to injured VFs. The goal of this study was to develop a hydrogel form of VF lamina propria ECM (VFLP-ECM) and to characterize its properties and in vitro cellular response.

Comparative proteomics of paired human vocal fold and oral mucosa tissue

Project description:This dataset brief is about the descriptive proteomic comparison of human oral mucosa and vocal fold tissues by high-resolution mass spectrometry (CID-MS/MS). The vast majority of voice disorders is associated with changes of the unique but delicate tissue of the human vocal folds, wheras the ability to develop new effective treatment methods is significantly limited by the physical inaccessibility and the extremely rare occasion to gather healthy tissue biopsies. Therefore, oral mucosa reached specific interest for laryngological research, as the tissue harvesting process is less invasive and accompanied with faster healing and less scarring. Proteomic analysis of both tissues will provide a fundamental laryngological resource for the research community. Our study identifies a total of 1575 proteins detected within both tissues that are highly consistent in several crucial biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions.

A Comparative Proteomic Study of Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Biomaterials Derived from Porcine Vocal Fold and Small Intestinal Submucosa Tissue Source

Project description:Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) is used to make regenerative biomaterials. As the ECM markups vary across organs, derived dECM products may possess different molecular and biological profiles as well. This study aims to compare the proteomic profiles of dECM biomaterials derived from small intestinal submucosa (SIS) and vocal fold (VF) tissue using mass spectrometry-based proteomics.
