Effect of homocysteine and homocystine on platelet and vascular arachidonic acid metabolism.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common and serious chronic lung disease of premature infants. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) plays an important role in tissue development and remodeling. We have previously shown that targeted overexpression of CTGF in alveolar type II epithelial cells re...
