Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), characterized by impaired lung development, remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in premature infants. The synthesis and metabolism of lipids play a critical role in normal lung development, such as dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, a key component of pulmonary surfactant (PS). Therefore, we conducted a lipidomics study of rat lung tissue to explore the changes of pulmonary lipid composition in the progression of BPD disease.
