Effects of Exogenous Surfactants on the Parameters of Blood Gas Composition in Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesОбщая реаниматология, 2007
Objective: to study the effects of the surfactants Surfactant-BL and Curosurf on pulmonary oxygenizing properties in preterm neonatal infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). The studies were performed in 81 preterm neonates with severe RDS. For

Pulmonary surfactant

open access: yesJournal of Applied Physiology, 1982
Pulmonary surfactant reduces the surface tension of the alveolar air-liquid interface, thereby providing mechanical stability and preventing alveolar atelectasis. More than 50% of surfactant is dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine, a material that is capable of reducing the surface tension of the alveolar interface to uniquely low values.

Altered surfactant homeostasis and recurrent respiratory failure secondary to TTF-1 nuclear targeting defect

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2011
Background Mutations of genes affecting surfactant homeostasis, such as SFTPB, SFTPC and ABCA3, lead to diffuse lung disease in neonates and children. Haploinsufficiency of NKX2.1, the gene encoding the thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) - critical ...

Pulmonary Surfactant and Drug Delivery: An Interface-Assisted Carrier to Deliver Surfactant Protein SP-D Into the Airways

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
This work is focused on the potential use of pulmonary surfactant to deliver full-length recombinant human surfactant protein SP-D (rhSP-D) using the respiratory air-liquid interface as a shuttle.

Surfactant spreading on liquid films in the Stokes regime

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
Characterizing the spreading of surfactants on the surface of a liquid film is central to our understanding of natural and technological processes ranging from cell propulsion and drug delivery in pulmonary airways to cleaning food processing surfaces ...

Impact of Polymer Nanoparticles on DPPC Monolayer Properties

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2022
The application of surface rheology and Brewster angle microscopy on mixed monolayers of DPPC and polymeric nanoparticles (cationic and anionic) showed that the sign of the particle charge affects the dynamic properties of the monolayers less than the ...

Ionic Surface Active Compounds in Atmospheric Aerosols

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2002
Surfactants in the atmosphere have several potential roles in atmospheric chemistry. They can form films on aqueous surfaces, which lowers the surface tension and possibly delays water evaporation and gaseous transportation across the aqueous interface ...
