Article Synopsis
- Vocal fold scarring, caused by injury and inflammation, leads to voice hoarseness with limited treatment options that negatively impact quality of life.
- The study introduces a new injectable hydrogel embedded with microbeads that release an antifibrotic drug, pirfenidone, to help treat this condition effectively.
- The hydrogel demonstrates improved properties such as injectability and tissue compatibility, and successfully reduces fibroblast cell activity, indicating its potential use for vocal fold scarring treatment.
