The use of oxygen therapy (high doses of oxygen - hyperoxia) in the treatment of premature infants results in their survival. However, it also results in a high incidence of chronic lung disease known as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, a disease in which airway hyper-responsiveness and pulmonary hypertension are well known as consequences. In our previous studies, we have shown that hyperoxia causes airway hyper-reactivity, characterized by an increased constrictive and impaired airway smooth muscle relaxation due to a reduced release of relaxant molecules such
