We determined the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)–1, MMP-9, collagen types I and III, and fibronectin from rabbit vocal folds after injury. Thirty rabbits were involved in this study. Five animals were assigned to each time period. Noninjured vocal fold specimens were collected as a control. Gene expression was analyzed at 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours after injury by use of real-time polymerase chain reaction. Compared to 2 hours after injury, MMP-1 expression was increased at 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours. Compared to 4 hours, MMP-1 expression was increased at 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours. Compared to the control specimens, MMP-9 expression was increased at 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours. Compared to 2 hours, MMP-9 expression was increased at 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours. Compared to 2 and 4 hours, collagen type I expression was increased at 72 hours. Collagen type III expression was increased at 72 hours compared to 2, 4, and 8 hours. Compared to 2 hours, fibronectin expression was increased at 24, 48, and 72 hours. Results revealed time-dependent changes in expression of MMP-1, MMP-9, collagen types I and III, and fibronectin from rabbit vocal folds after injury. Future experiments are planned to investigate the effects of phonation on expression of these genes after injury.
