Abstract:
Chronic lung disease is a very common complication caused by inhaled hyperoxia, mechanical ventilation and pulmonary infection in preterm infants. It shows early inflammation and late alveoli fusion with mesenchymal fibroblast proliferation. Mitogen activated protein kinase is a very important signal transduction pathway in eukaryotic cells.It plays an important role in the cell inflammation, proliferation, differentiation, survival and apoptosis, which may contributes to the chronic lung disease.
