Disrupted postnatal lung development in heme oxygenase-1 deficient mice

BACKGROUND: Heme oxygenase (HO) degrades cellular heme to carbon monoxide, iron and biliverdin. The HO-1 isoform is both inducible and cyto-protective during oxidative stress, inflammation and lung injury. However, little is known about its precise role and function in lung development.
