Targeting Chemosensitive Channels for Dysphagia
Edit
This entry is adapted from the peer-reviewed paper 10.3390/ijms21176214

Swallowing is a physiological process that transports ingested foods, liquids, and saliva from the oral cavity into the stomach. Difficulty in the oropharyngeal swallowing process or oropharyngeal dysphagia is a major health problem. There is no established pharmacological therapy for the management of oropharyngeal dysphagia. Studies have suggested that the current clinical management of oropharyngeal dysphagia has limited effectiveness for recovering swallowing physiology and for promoting neuroplasticity in swallowing-related neuronal networks. The peripheral chemical neurostimulation strategy is one of the innovative strategies, and targets chemosensory ion channels expressed in peripheral swallowing-related regions. A considerable number of animal and human studies, including randomized clinical trials in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia, have reported improvements in the efficacy, safety, and physiology of swallowing using this strategy. There is also evidence that neuroplasticity is promoted in swallowing-related neuronal networks with this strategy. The targeting of chemosensory ion channels in peripheral swallowing-related regions may therefore be a promising pharmacological treatment strategy for the management of oropharyngeal dysphagia.

oropharyngeal dysphagia chemosensory ion channels peripheral chemical neurostimulation strategy

1. Introduction

Difficulties in the process of swallowing are termed dysphagia. Swallowing difficulties often lead to severe complications, such as pulmonary aspiration, malnutrition, dehydration, and pneumonia, which have high mortality rates [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. Generally, dysphagia is divided into oropharyngeal and esophageal subtypes based on the location of the swallowing difficulty [8][9][10]. In oropharyngeal dysphagia, difficulty arises when transporting the food bolus or liquid from the oral cavity to the esophagus, while in esophageal dysphagia, the impedance occurs in the esophagus itself [8][9][10]. Oropharyngeal dysphagia is more prevalent and more severe than esophageal dysphagia [11]. In oropharyngeal dysphagia, patients have difficulties with evoking swallowing. Triggering of the swallow is often delayed, leading to impaired safety of swallowing. If the swallow response is not evoked at the correct time, the airways may remain open during swallowing. This can allow the entry of food particles or liquids into the laryngeal vestibule above the vocal folds (termed penetration,) or even deep into the airway below the vocal folds (termed aspiration), and may lead to aspiration pneumonia[12][13]. Airway penetration and aspiration are caused by a delayed laryngeal vestibule closure time and slow hyoid motion [1][14]. Impaired safety of swallowing with bolus penetration occurs in more than half of all patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia, and approximately 20–25% of these patients present aspiration into the airway [1][15][16]. The inability to swallow efficiently can also lead to the presence of bolus residues in the oropharyngeal region (termed oropharyngeal residues), which causes the sensation of having food stuck in the oral cavity or throat regions [17][18]. Oropharyngeal residues occur because of weak bolus propulsion forces and impaired pharyngeal clearance [1][14].

There are many causes of oropharyngeal dysphagia, including neurovascular accidents (e.g., stroke or head injury), neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson’s disease, dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, or Alzheimer’s disease), neuromuscular problems (e.g., polymyositis/dermatomyositis or myasthenia gravis), and local lesions (e.g., head and neck tumors, surgical resection of the oropharynx/larynx, or radiation injury) [17][18][19]. More than half of all stroke patients and around 30% of traumatic brain injury patients develop some kind of swallowing dysfunction. In addition, approximately 50–80% of patients with Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and dementia have oropharyngeal dysphagia [7][13][20][21][22]. Many older people also develop oropharyngeal dysphagia [17][18][23][24][25][26]. The prevalence of oropharyngeal dysphagia among institutionalized aged patients is more than 50%, while it is approximately 30% among the general older population [3][4][5][6][7][27][28][29][30].

2. Management of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia

2.1 Compensatory Strategies and Swallowing Exercises/Maneuvers

There is no established pharmacological therapy for the management of oropharyngeal dysphagia [31][32]. Currently, its clinical management is mainly focused on compensatory strategies and swallowing exercises/maneuvers [23][33][34][35]. Common compensatory strategies include modification of the properties of the bolus to be swallowed (e.g., changing the volume, viscosity, or texture of the bolus), and the adoption of different postures before swallowing (e.g., chin tuck or head tilt) [23][33][34][35][36][37][38]. Such compensatory strategies are short-term adjustments that aim to compensate for the swallowing difficulty, but they do not usually change the impaired swallowing physiology or promote the recovery of swallowing function in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia [33][34][38][39]. Thickeners are often used to increase the viscosity of the bolus, to reduce penetration or aspiration [14][16][40]. Although, increasing the viscosity of the bolus using thickeners can improve swallowing safety, studies have reported that it also increases the amount of oropharyngeal residue [14][16][41][42][43]. Thickeners also have poor palatability, leading to poor compliance by patients [16][41]. Increasing the bolus volume has been reported to increase penetration and aspiration, along with increased amounts of oral [44] and pharyngeal residues, during swallowing in neurogenic oropharyngeal dysphagia patients [14][44]. Some common swallowing exercises/maneuvers include tongue exercises, jaw exercises, effortful swallow exercises, and Mendelsohn maneuvers (voluntarily holding the larynx in an elevated position). The aims of these exercises/maneuvers are to improve the efficacy of swallowing-related muscles, improve the motion of the bolus, and promote modest neuroplastic changes (i.e., the reorganization of neural connections) [34][36][37][38]. Although both compensatory strategies and swallowing exercises/maneuvers are widely used in clinical practice, the evidence to support their effectiveness is often limited [14][16][34][36][37][38][40][45][46][47][48].

2.2 Neurostimulation or Sensory Stimulation Strategies

In addition to compensatory strategies and swallowing exercises/maneuvers, neurostimulation or sensory stimulation strategies have also been investigated for the management of oropharyngeal dysphagia, although they have not yet become part of mainstream clinical practice [34][36][45][46][47][48][49]. In these strategies, stimuli are applied to central (cortical) or peripheral swallowing-related regions. In central neurostimulation strategies, transcranial magnetic stimulation, or transcranial direct current stimulation is applied to the brain to activate the swallowing-related motor cortex and corticobulbar pathways [34][50][51][52][53][54]. These strategies have shown promising results in stroke patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia [50][51][52][53][55][56]; however, to conduct these therapies (especially transcranial magnetic stimulation), specific and expensive equipment and well-trained professionals are required [57][58]. In peripheral neurostimulation/sensory stimulation strategies, various types of sensory stimuli (e.g., mechanical, thermal, electrical, or chemical) are applied to the oropharyngeal regions. These stimuli increase the sensory inputs to the swallowing center of the brainstem, as well as to the swallowing-related sensory cortex via the sensory nerves that innervate these regions, and thus improve swallowing function [34][49][59][60][61].

4. Conclusions

The advantages of the peripheral chemical neurostimulation strategy are that it does not require specific costly equipment and is relatively cheap and easy to conduct, and patient compliance may also be good. Patients are not required to swallow tablets or capsules; rather, the channel agonists can be mixed with ingestible boluses. Because patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia often face difficulties in swallowing tablets or capsules [69][70], this advantage may provide added benefits in terms of patient compliance. In a considerable number of human studies, low concentrations of natural agonists of some TRPs (e.g., capsaicin and piperine) have been mixed with ingestible boluses to improve swallowing functions (Table 2). These natural agonists are phytochemicals found in culinary herbs and spices, and are advantageous because they may not have serious side effects at low concentrations. Many phytochemicals and active compounds of various botanicals can activate TRPs [71], and therefore have the potential to facilitate swallowing. In future studies, phytochemicals of various botanicals should be investigated in animal and human trials to investigate their potency, specificity, and dose of action to improve swallowing functions. The TRP family has many members, but only TRPV1, TRPA1, and TRPM8 channels have so far been targeted in studies of dysphagia management. The expression of other TRPs (e.g., TRPV2, TRPV4, and TRPM3) has been reported in swallowing-related regions and ganglia [72][73][74][75]. Thus, the functional roles of these TRPs in swallowing processes need to be investigated in future research, as well as whether they can be targeted for dysphagia management. Along with TRPs, other chemosensory ion channels (e.g., ASICs and purinergic channels) can also be targeted. Highly potent synthetic agonists of these channels can be considered in basic research; however, their safety needs to be assured before they can be used in clinical trials.

Currently, the effect of long-term use of peripheral chemical neurostimulation strategy is unknown. Therefore, whether efficacy is retained in long-term agonist supplementation, and the possible development of adaptation or desensitization, needs to be studied in long-term randomized, controlled, multi-center trials of large numbers of patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia. Understanding the maintenance capability of neuroplasticity over time with short- or mid-term supplementation is also important. Furthermore, patient phenotype is another important issue to be considered. The etiology of oropharyngeal dysphagia and its accompanying health conditions can vary among patients; therefore, same treatment strategy may not be effective for every patient phenotype [36][76][77]. Although patient recruitment may be challenging, clinical trials with large numbers of patients with the same phenotypes need to be conducted, to understand the effectiveness of different treatment strategies within the same patient phenotype. Studies combining the peripheral chemosensory ion channel activation strategy with other promising treatment strategies (e.g., cortical neurostimulation or pharyngeal electrical stimulation) may also need to be conducted.
