α1 ANTITRYPSIN (AAT) ACTIVITY IN DEVELOPMENT OF BRONCHOPULMONARY DYSPLASIA (BPD)

Some of the toxic side effects of oxygen therapy are indirectly attributable to the release of proteases including elastases from PMNs. These may contribute to the pathogenesis of BPD. AAT inhibits elastases a...

SERUM PROLACTIN IN INTRAVENTRICULAR HEMORRHAGE (IVH)

Prolactin has been thought to play a role in preventing mobilization of tissue water in the neonate. Serum levels of prolactin are low in premature newborns and this may lead to decreased intracellular water, ...
