RNA sequencing conducted in patients with BPD and preterm infant controls
A total of 18 preterm infants with a gestational age of less than 32 weeks were enrolled in this study. They were grouped into 9 infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and 9 preterm controls. Serum samples were collected at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age and subjected to bulk mRNA gene sequencing.
