Infants with BPD were characterized by increased levels of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein (LBP), X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 6 (XRCC6), GLI pathogenesis-related 1 (GLIPR1), Golgi membrane Protein 1(GOLM1), immunoglobulin kappa variable (IGKV1-5), and immunoglobulin kappa variable 1–33 (IGKV1-33) in cord blood. Here, IGKV1-33 is linked to bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
