“…Premature infants encounter multiple environmental challenges associated with the routine provision of neonatal care, including exposure to hyperoxia, hypoxia, ventilation, infection, inflammation, and ROS-generating therapies (e.g., total parenteral nutrition and dopamine). Whereas each of these factors individually contributes to the generation of oxidative stress, the collective exposure influences the development of BPD (25,27,62,88,115,117). The common path of ROS-mediated lung injury shared by these exposures highlights the need for novel strategies to alleviate the burden of oxidative stress.…”
