PLoS One
. 2012 Jul;
7(7):e39392.
PMID: 22808033
Although superiority of synthetic surfactant over animal-driven surfactant has been known, there is no synthetic surfactant commercially available at present. Many trials have been made to develop synthetic surfactant comparable...

PMID: 22735927
Background: Transporting premature infants from a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to a radiology department for MRI has medical risks and logistical challenges. Objective: To develop a small 1.5-T MRI...

Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol
. 2012 Jun;
47(4):454-63.
PMID: 22652201
Many transcription factors that regulate lung morphogenesis during development are reactivated to mediate repairs of the injured adult lung. We hypothesized that CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-α (C/EBPα), a transcription factor critical...

. 2012 Jan;
287(13):10099-10114.
PMID: 22267724
Pulmonary inflammation is associated with altered lipid synthesis and clearance related to diabetes, obesity, and various inherited metabolic disorders. In many tissues, lipogenesis is regulated at the transcriptional level by...

Kuypers E, Collins J, Kramer B, Ofman G, Nitsos I, Pillow J, et al.
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol
. 2011 Dec;
302(4):L380-9.
PMID: 22160306
The proinflammatory stimulus of chorioamnionitis is commonly associated with preterm delivery. Women at risk of preterm delivery receive antenatal glucocorticoids to functionally mature the fetal lung. However, the effects of...

PLoS One
. 2011 Nov;
6(11):e26682.
PMID: 22096492
Among all mammals, fetal growth and organ maturation must be precisely synchronized with gestational length to optimize survival at birth. Lack of pulmonary maturation is the major cause of infant...

Dev Biol
. 2011 Nov;
362(1):24-41.
PMID: 22094019
Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) 1a, EPAS1 and NEPAS are expressed in the embryonic mouse lung and each isoform exhibits distinct spatiotemporal expression patterns throughout morphogenesis. To further assess the role...

Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol
. 2011 Oct;
46(3):380-8.
PMID: 22021337
Pulmonary fibrosis remains a significant public health burden with no proven therapies. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/MAPK kinase (MEK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling cascade is a major pathway controlling cellular...

300(3):L498-505.
PMID: 21216976
In the fetus, leptin in the circulation increases at late gestation and likely influences fetal organ development. Increased surfactant by leptin was previously demonstrated in vitro using fetal lung explant....
