5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine Inhibits the Proliferation of Lung Fibroblasts in Neonatal Rats Exposed to Hyperoxia

A persistent increase in the number of lung fibroblasts (LFs) is found in the interstitium of the lungs of infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), which leads to lung fibrosis. P16 methylation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of BPD. 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR) is a major me...
