The effect of human amnion epithelial cells on lung development and inflammation in preterm lambs exposed to antenatal inflammation.

<h4>Background</h4>Lung inflammation and impaired alveolarization are hallmarks of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We hypothesize that human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) are anti-inflammatory and reduce lung injury in preterm lambs born after antenatal exposure to inflammation.<h...
