Preterm babies often require mechanical ventilation to survive, but exposure to high levels of oxygen can permanently damage the lungs and interrupts normal development. As lung macrophages play an important role in hyperoxic lung injury and repair, our objective was to use next generation sequencing (NGS) to identify changes in the macrophage transcriptome following neonatal hyperoxia, with and withou… Show more
