ABSTRACT: Background
Intrauterine infection/inflammation can result in fetal and neonatal lung injury. However, the biological mechanisms of intrauterine infection/inflammation on fetal and neonatal lung injury and development are poorly known. To date, there are no reliable biomarkers for improving intrauterine infection/inflammation-induced lung injury.Methods
An animal model of intrauterine infection/inflammation-induced lung injury was established with pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats inoculated with Escherichia coli suspension. The intrauterine inflammatory status was assessed through the histological examination of the placenta and uterus. A serial of histological examinations of the fetal and neonatal rats lung tissues were performed. The fetal and neonatal rat lung tissues were h
