Popis: | Background Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and interferon-inducible protein of 10 kDa (IP-10) are potent inflammatory mediators and contribute to acute lung injury in adults. Recently, a potential role for IFN-γ and IP-10 in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has been reported in animal models. Objective To study the association between IFN-γ and IP-10 in tracheal aspirate (TA) and the development of BPD in premature infants. Design/Methods TA samples collected within 48 hr after birth from 79 mechanically ventilated premature neonates [gestational age (GA) |
