Abstract
Decreased density of neural structures and size of intramural ganglia, reduced expression of neural tissue and PGP 9.5 protein, and increased levels of PGP 9.5 mRNA reveal deficient tracheal innervation in rats with CDH. If similar anomalies exist in the human condition, they could contribute to explaining the pathogenesis of lung hypoplasia and bronchopulmonary sequelae.
