The objective of lung development is to generate an organ of gas exchange that provides
both a thin gas diffusion barrier and a large gas diffusion surface area, which concomitantly …

Airway structure and function are key aspects of normal lung development, growth, and
aging, as well as of lung responses to the environment and the pathophysiology of important …

During late lung development, alveolar and microvascular development is finalized to
enable sufficient gas exchange. Impaired late lung development manifests as …

Hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (HALI) is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of
bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in neonates, for which no specific preventive or …

Premature infants are at high risk for developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD),
characterized by chronic inflammation and inhibition of lung development, which we have …

Progress in developing new therapies for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is sometimes
complicated by the lack of a standardised animal model. Our objective was to develop a …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) continues to be one of the most common complications
of preterm birth and is characterized histopathologically by impaired lung alveolarization …

Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have shown to be potential therapeutic, diagnostic and
prognostic targets in disease therapy. These endogenous non-coding RNAs contribute to …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common complication of preterm birth, with
appreciable morbidity and mortality in a neonatal intensive care setting. Much interest has …

Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) was firstly identified as a hormone that mediates the
biological effects of growth hormone. Accumulating data have indicated the role of IGF‐1 …
