Abstract
Preterm birth is associated with alteration of the vascular tree that can result in disease states such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia and retinopathy of prematurity during the neonatal period and emphysema and hypertension in adulthood. Studies have suggested a potential role for endothelial progenitor cells in the pathophysiology of prematurity-related complications involving blood vessels; however, this knowledge has never been synthesized. We conducted a systematic review of the published data to examine the characteristics of endothelial progenitor cells in relation to preterm birth in humans. Preterm infants compared with term controls displayed similar or increased circulating/cord blood endothelial progenitor cell counts. However, the preterm endothelial progenitor cells were more vulnerable to exogenous factors such as oxidative stress. A reduced number, in particular of endothelial colony-forming cells, was associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia. No studies have examined endothelial progenitor cells beyond the neonatal period. These findings could prove useful in the identification of biomarkers for prognostication or therapeutic strategies for vascular-related diseases in preterm-born individuals.

Lung parenchymal development in premature infants without bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Pediatr Pulmonol 2015; 50:1313-9.

Abstract
RATIONALE While infants who are born extremely premature and develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) have impaired alveolar development and decreased pulmonary diffusion (DLCO), it remains unclear whether infants born less premature and do not develop BPD, healthy premature (HP), have impaired parenchymal development. In addition, there is increasing evidence that pro-angiogenic cells are important for vascular development; however, there is little information on the relationship of pro-angiogenic cells to lung growth and development in infants. OBJECTIVE and Methods Determine among healthy premature (HP) and fullterm (FT) infants, whether DLCO and alveolar volume (VA) are related to gestational age at birth (GA), respiratory support during the neonatal period (mechanical ventilation [MV], supplemental oxygen [O2], continuous positive airway pressure [CPAP]), and pro-angiogenic circulating hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (CHSPCs). We measured DLCO, VA, and CHSPCs in infants between 3-33 months corrected-ages; HP (mean GA = 31.7 wks; N = 48,) and FT (mean GA = 39.3 wks; N =88). RESULT DLCO was significantly higher in HP than FT subjects, while there was no difference in VA , after adjusting for body length, gender, and race. DLCO and VA were not associated with GA, MV and O2; however, higher values were associated with higher CHSPCs, as well as treatment with CPAP. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that in the absence of extreme premature birth, as well as BPD, prematurity per se, does not impair lung parenchymal development.
