Pathogenesis of nitrofen-induced congenital diaphragmatic hernia in fetal rats.
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a developmental anomaly characterized by the malformation of the diaphragm and impaired lung development. In the present study, we tested several hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of CDH, including those suggesting that the primary defect is due to abnormal 1) lung development, 2) phrenic nerve formation, 3) developmental processes underlying diaphra...

متن کاملCongenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia in a terrier dog
A one-month-old male terrier dog was referred in shock status with a history of anorexia, tachypnea, abdominal distention and progressive weight loss. Auscultation of right side of the lungs found enhanced respiratory noises. The thorough auscultation of the opposite side of the chest revealed the presence of typical intestinal sounds. Cardiac auscultation revealed muffled heart sounds and a di...
متن کاملCongenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Following Usage of Lithium Carbonate; Is Lithium a Teratogen?
BACKGROUND Lithium is used mainly for the treatment of Bipolar Disorder (BD). Case reports and several retrospective studies have demonstrated possible teratogenicity, but the data in different studies is inconclusive. The risk for cardiovascular malformations, particularly Ebstein's anomaly and other congenital abnormalities have been reported. CASE PRESENTATION A 25-year-old gravida 1, para...
متن کاملMechanisms of action of the congenital diaphragmatic hernia-inducing teratogen nitrofen.
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a developmental anomaly that results in significant mortality and morbidity. The underlying etiology is poorly understood. Insights will arise from an understanding of the mechanisms by which the teratogen nitrofen induces CDH in rodent models. In this study, we use in vitro cell assays in conjunction with whole animal rodent studies to test hypotheses r...
