The Role of Pulmonary Surfactants in the Treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in COVID-19 [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Lung alveolar type-II (AT-II) cells produce pulmonary surfactant (PS), consisting of proteins and lipids. The lipids in PS are primarily responsible for reducing the air-fluid surface tension inside the alveoli of the lungs and to prevent atelectasis ...

Pulmonary Surfactants: a New Therapeutic Target in Asthma. [PDF]
Curr Allergy Asthma Rep, 2020 PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Lung tissues are highly susceptible to airway inflammation as they are inevitably exposed to inhaled pathogens and allergens. In the lungs, clearance of infectious agents and regulation of inflammatory responses are important for the ...

Pulmonary surfactants and the respiratory-renal connection in steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome of childhood [PDF]
IScience, 2022 Summary: Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) in childhood is usually due to minimal change disease (MCD). Unlike many glomerular conditions, SSNS/MCD is commonly precipitated by respiratory infections. Of interest, pulmonary inflammation releases

Kinematic viscosity of therapeutic pulmonary surfactants with added polymers
Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Biomembranes, 2009 The addition of various polymers to pulmonary surfactants improves surface activity in experiments both in vitro and in vivo. Although the viscosity of surfactants has been investigated, the viscosity of surfactant polymer mixtures has not. In this study,
