Abstract
The importance of vocal cord leukoplakia (VCL) in the etiology and progression of laryngeal carcinoma has gained increasing recognition. However, research into the mechanisms of laryngeal precancerous lesions such as VCL, has been hampered by the small size of VCL epithelial cells and their limited culture lifespan. In this study, we enhanced the primary culture protocol for VCL epithelial cells and introduced simian virus 40 Large T to establish an immortalized cell line, designated hVCL-MSDEP01. We confirmed that hVCL-MSDEP01 expresses epithelial-specific genes and proteins; it also demonstrates distinct cell cycle dynamics and apoptosis rates compared with primary cells. In conclusion, hVCL-MSDEP01 serves as an ideal in vitro model for studying VCL. This cell line will substantially advance research into the etiology and progression of laryngeal carcinoma.
