In contrast to early lung development, a process exemplified by the branching of the
developing airways, the later development of the immature lung remains very poorly …

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 …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in
preterm infants. A key histopathological feature of BPD is stunted late lung development …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease in infants born extremely
preterm, typically before 28 weeks' gestation, characterized by a prolonged need for …

The early mouse embryonic lung, with its robust and apparently reproducible branching
pattern, has always fascinated developmental biologists. They have extensively used this …

Alveolarization is the process by which the alveoli, the principal gas exchange units of the
lung, are formed. Along with the maturation of the pulmonary vasculature, alveolarization is …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the main respiratory sequela of extreme prematurity.
Its pathophysiology is complex, involving interactions between host and environment, likely …

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a form of chronic lung disease that occurs in infants,
usually in preterm infants receiving respiratory support with mechanical ventilation or …

In contrast to many other organs, a significant portion of lung development occurs after birth
during alveolarization, thus rendering the lung highly susceptible to injuries that may disrupt …

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