In the L-NAME model, several factors involved in alveolarization, VEGF, VEGF-R1 and –R2, MMP14, MMP16, FGFR3 and 4, FGF18 and 7, were significantly decreased at day 4 and/or day 10, while the various factors studied were not modified in the LPD group. Here, FGFR3 is linked to disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis.
