Upregulation of transcription factors in lung in the early phase of postpneumonectomy lung growth
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
In the adult rodent, pneumonectomy results in compensatory lung growth characterized by cell proliferation. The molecular mechanisms governing this response remain unknown. We hypothesized that, in the early period postpneumonectomy, upregulated expression of transcription factors drives the growth process. We utilized a cDNA expression array to screen for upregulated transcription factors after left...
