Bone Marrow-Derived c-kit Cells Attenuate Neonatal Hyperoxia-Induced Lung Injury

Recent studies suggest that bone marrow (BM)-derived stem cells have therapeutic efficacy in neonatal hyperoxia-induced lung injury (HILI). c-kit, a tyrosine kinase receptor that regulates angiogenesis, is expressed on several populations of BM-derived cells. Preterm infants exposed to hyperoxia hav...
