Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease, which is a major complication of very low and ultra-low preterm infants. Moderate and severe BPD survivors are prone to adverse outcomes such as impaired lung function, childhood exercise intolerance, and neurodevelopmental retardation in the long term, which seriously affects their quality of life and brings a heavy burden to society and families. However, the pathogenesis of BPD is complex, including pulmonary vascular dysplasia, lung inflammation, and impaired alveolar development. There is currently no specific clinical drug to cure BPD. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a kind of multipotent stem cells that exist in almost all organs and tissues of individuals. MSCs have the properties including self-renewal, multi-directional differentiation, and immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory abilities. Preclinical studies have shown that MSCs can alleviate BPD by improving alveolar and pulmonary vascular development, and reducing pulmonary fibrosis. Several phase I clinical studies have demonstrated that intratracheal transplantation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells for children with BPD is safe and feasible.
This study aims to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in the treatment of severe BPD in premature infants, in the hope of increasing the survival rate and improving the prognosis of severe BPD.

| Further assess the severity of BPD by detecting the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine in alveolar lavage fluid, pulmonary function index and chest radiography. | The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine (IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10, MMP-9, TGF-β) in alveolar lavage fluid are examined via ELISA kits before and at 7 days after MSC transplantation. Record the pulmonary function index including FiO2, PaO2, VT, PEEP. Participants perform the chest radiography examination before and at 24 hours, 3 Days, 7days and 1month after MSC transplantation. The severity of BPD will be further assessed by above indicators. |

| Short-term safety assessment of MSC transplantation by whether anaphylaxis and severe infection are observed within 24 hours after MSC transplantation. | Observed and record whether participants experience anaphylaxis including rash and anaphylactic shock within 24 hours after MSC transplantation. Also, record whether participants experience severe infection including hyperpyrexia, aggravated pulmonary inflammation and worse pulmonary function within 24 hours after MSC transplantation. | within 24 hours after MSC transplantation |
| long-term safety assessment of MSC transplantation by whether intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular leukomalacia, neurodevelopmental problems and tumor formation are observed after MSC transplantation until 24 months of corrected age. | Participants perform the cranial ultrasound to assess whether intraventricular hemorrhage and periventricular leukomalacia occur. Cranial MRI and Bayley Scale for Infant Development (BSID) are performed to assess neurodevelopment. Ultrasound and MRI examinations are performed to assess tumor formation after MSC transplantation until 24 months of corrected age. | until 24 months of corrected age |
