Management of Vocal Fold Leukoplakia
ABSTRACT Vocal fold leukoplakia (VFL) is a descriptive term for a white plaque in the true vocal folds (TVF). It is estimated at 10.2 cases per 100,000 males and 2.1 per 100,000 females.

DLK/JNK3 Upregulation Aggravates Hair Cell Senescence in Mice Cochleae via Excessive Autophagy
In normal physiological processes, autophagy acts as a protective factor against aging stress. With the stress increase, the DLK/JNK3 pathway is activated and autophagy is continuously upregulated. In our study, excessive autophagy leads to hair cell senescence, which reveals that excessive autophagy can play a harmful role in senescence under certain ...
