Quantitative evaluation of the extent of hepatic enzyme changes in Reye syndrome compared with normal liver or with non-Reye liver disorders: objective criteria for animal models.

abstract：:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common pulmonary complication in preterm infants that leads to fibrosis of the bronchoalveolar walls and often to severe clinical consequences. Type III collagen is deposited early in progressive fibrosis. Because the N-terminal propeptide of type III collagen (PIIINP), a by-produ...
