Erythropoietin production by macrophages from preterm infants: implications regarding the cause of the anemia of prematurity.

abstract：:Branching morphogenesis, defined as growth and branching of epithelial tubules during embryogenesis, is a fundamental feature of renal, lung, mammary gland, submandibular gland, and pancreatic morphogenesis in mammals. Disruption of branching morphogenesis has been demonstrated to result in maldevelopment of some of t...
