Coordinated proliferation of lung cells is required for normal lung growth and differentiation. Chronic injury to developing lung may disrupt normal patterns of cell proliferation. To examine patterns of cell proliferation in injured developing lungs, we investigated premature baboons delivered at 125 days gestation (~67% of term) and treated with oxygen and ventilation for 6, 14, or 21 days (PRN). Each PRN treatment group contained 3 or 4 animals. During normal in utero lung development, the proportion of proliferating lung cells declined as measured by the cell-cycle marker Ki67. In the PRN group, the proportion of proliferating lung cells was 2.5-8.5-fold greater than in corresponding gestational controls. By 14 days of treatment, the proportion of cells that expressed pro-surfactant protein B (proSP-B) was ~2.5-fold greater than in gestational controls. In the PRN group, 41% of proliferating cells expressed proSP-B compared with 5.8% in the gestational controls. By 21 days of treatment, proliferation of proSP-B-expressing epithelial cells declined substantially, but the proportion of proliferating non-proSP-B-expressing cells increased approximately sevenfold. These data show that the development of chronic lung disease is associated with major alterations in normal patterns of lung-cell proliferation.
