Role of selenium in neonatal lung development
… role of dietary selenium (Se) in development of neonatal lungs under normoxia and hyperoxia. Lung development was assessed by measuring certain parameters of functional and structural development, including pulmonary phospholipids and histomorphometry. Lung lesions due to hyperoxia were assessed …

An investigation into the effect of maternal exposure to nicotine and copper on neonatal lung development
… (1mg/kg BW/day) during all the phases of lung development, or from the onset of the phase of rapid alveolarisation and, 2) whether copper supplementation (1mg/kg BW/day) will prevent the adverse effects of maternal nicotine exposure, on lung development in the offspring. The latter aim is …

The influence of maternal nicotine exposure on development lung as gas exchanger: the protective effect of copper
… and lactation interferes with fetal and neonatal lung growth and development, rendering the lungs more susceptible to damage and disease. interference with the normal developmental processes at any stage may compromise the gas exchange function of the lungs. Maternal nicotine exposure …

Regulation of Lung Mesenchymal Cells By Epithelial Wnt Ligands
… lineage tracing, first, we delineated different lung mesenchymal cell types and classified them into three-proximal-distal axes in the neonatal and adult murine lung. Each axis is associated to the structure they support – the endothelium, epithelium and interstitium. We also identified two …

Lung tissue engineering : in vitro synthesis of lung tissue from neonatal and fetal rat lung cells cultured in a three-dimensional collagen matrix
… formed when fetal (16-20 days gestation) and neonatal (2 days old) rat lung cells were grown in a collagen-glycosaminoglycan scaffold. This project employed a collagen-GAG scaffold specifically developed for tissue engineering and investigated the effect of this substratum on the formation of …

Ceramides as Therapeutic Targets in Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disorder associated with extremely premature birth, resulting from arrested development of the microvasculature and consequently disrupted alveologenesis. Premature infants are dependent on respiratory support, including oxygen supplementation and …

Does maternal nicotine exposure during gestation and lactation change the oxidant-antioxidant status of the lungs of the offsprings and is tomato juice protecting the lungs of the offsprings?
… lactation causes diverse effects on fetal and neonatal lung development, integrity and maturation which compromise the gas exchange function of the lungs and renders this vital organ susceptible to gradual damage and different diseases in latter life. Maternal nicotine exposure during gestation …

Premature aging of the lungs of the offspring induced by maternal nicotine exposure during gestation and lactation: protective effects of tomato juice
… in the interference with normal fetal and neonatal lung development. Maternal cigarette smoke or nicotine exposure produces adverse effects in the lungs of offspring, these include; intrauterine growth retardation, low birth weight, premature birth, reduced pulmonary function at birth, and …
