Soluble E-Selectin, Soluble L-Selectin and Soluble ICAM-1 in Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, and Changes With Dexamethasone

Abstract

Low sL-selectin may be an early indicator of enhanced risk for BPD. Low levels of sL-selectin and increasing levels of sE-selectin may be risk factors for BPD. The effects of dexamethasone treatment include significant modulation of adhesion molecules.
