Despite modern treatments, congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) remains associated with variable survival and significant morbidity. The associated pulmonary hypoplasia is a major determinant of outcome. To develop better treatments, improved comprehension of the pathogenesis of lung hypoplasia is warranted. We

Despite the progress in prenatal diagnosis and intervention as well as postnatal therapeutic strategies, congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is still associated with a meaningful mortality because of the induced pulmonary hypoplasia. An essential key in understanding the pathogenesis of CDH

We sought to investigate the effects of antenatal retinoic acid on the pulmonary vasculature and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptors (VEGFR) expression in a nitrofen-induced congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) model. Rat fetuses were exposed to nitrofen at
Pediatric surgery international, 28(2), 195-199 (2011-10-14)
Nitrofen model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) has been widely used to investigate the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypoplasia (PH). Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathway plays a fundamental role in fetal lung development. FGF7 and FGF10, which are critical for
