Study Explores Sex as a Biological Variable in Lung Cell Markers after High Oxygen Exposure

Article title: Endothelial to mesenchymal transition in neonatal hyperoxic lung injury: role of sex as a biological variable

Authors: Abiud Cantu, Manuel Cantu Gutierrez, Yuhao Zhang, Xiaoyu Dong, Krithika Lingappan

From the authors: “We show that neonatal hyperoxia exposure increased [endothelial to mesenchymal transition] markers in the lung endothelial cells and this biological process exhibits sex-specific differences.”

This study is highlighted as one of September’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society's APSselect program.
