Transcriptomic profiling of the developing rabbit's lung
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Preterm infants are delivered during vulnerable stages of lung development at late canalicular, saccular, or early alveolar phases according to their degree of prematurity. Consequently, they often require medical interventions, especially to support their respiratory system. Preterm birth and post-natal oxygen and mechanical ventilation support can alter programmed patterns of fetal lung development, leading to the instauration of chronic lung diseases. The most significant pulmonary complication of preterm birth is bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The aim of this study is to delve into the translational power of rabbits as a suitable model of neonatal chronic lung diseases, characterizing the physiological rabbit lung development through the application of histological, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses on perinatal rabbit lung samples, investigating the impact of preterm birth and its relevance on BPD modeling.
