Research Abstract |
We investigated whether bombesin,which is neuropeptide, has an effect on pulmonary maturity of CDH rat. Pregnant Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat(term22) received 100mg of nitrofen into stomach through nasogastric tube on day 9.5. Lung tissues of CDH rat represented narrowing of alveolar space, hypertrophy of alveolar wall consistent with hypoplastic lung. Lung weight to body weight ratio(LW/BW) was significantly higher in normal group than in CDH group(p
