Severe BPD can be associated with clinical and histologic features that
are similar to ACD without evidence of FOXF1 genetic disease.
Importantly, lung FOXF1 and TMEM100 gene expression is markedly
decreased in severe BPD, suggesting that impaired FOXF1 signaling may
contribute to abnormal lung growth and refractory pulmonary hypertension
in BPD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
