Physiological Reports
The onset and degree of injury occurring in animals that develop hyperoxic acute lung injury (HALI) is dependent on age at exposure, suggesting that developmentally regulated pathways/factors must underlie initiation of the epithelial injury and subs

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process by which epithelial cells undergo conversion to a mesenchymal phenotype contributing to wound repair by fibrosis and to cancer cell acquisition of invasive ability. Recently, we showed that type II

It is unclear how sublethal hypoxia affects lung development. To investigate the effects of chronic hypoxia on postnatal lung remodeling, we treated neonatal rats with FIO2 of 0.12 for 10 d and analyzed lung development by morphometry and gene expres

Background: Hyperoxia and tidal volume mechanical ventilation are independent factors in the genesis of lung injury, but it remains unclear the extent to which each is responsible or contributes to this process in newborns. Objectives: To study the i

The peptides platelet-derived growth factor-A (PDGF-A) and especially -B have important roles in lung development. The effect of hyperoxic exposure with and without inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) on lung expression of PDGF and its receptors is unknown. W

In this retrospective study, we tested the following hypotheses: rates of severe intraventricular hemorrhage (SIVH) and early neonatal survival are similar among extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants treated with combination prophylaxis of phenob

Objective. The pathogenesis of chronic lung disease (CLD) involves inflammation with proteolytic damage to lung extracellular matrix. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that, acting in concert with their tissue inhibit

Microvascular development is critical for normal lung maturation. The aims of this study were (1) to quantitatively and qualitatively assess lung microvascular growth in the human fetus, from 22 to 40 weeks’ gestation, and (2) to compare developmen

Pulmonary hyperoxic injury manifests as widespread alveolar-epithelial and microvascular endothelial cell necrosis, resolution of which requires angiogenesis. We investigated the hypothesis that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) and hyperoxia each decreases
