VEGF attenuates hyperoxic injury through decreased apoptosis in explanted rat embryonic lung.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The preterm newborn is at high risk of developing cardiovascular compromise during the first day of life and this is associated with increased risk of brain injury. Standard treatments are volume expansion and administration of inotropes, typically dopamine and/or dobutamine, but there is limited evidence th...
