Surfactant protein D modulates HIV infection of both T-cells and dendritic cells [PDF]

, 2013
Surfactant Protein D (SP-D) is an oligomerized C-type lectin molecule with immunomodulatory properties and involvement in lung surfactant homeostasis in the respiratory tract.

Surfactant function in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

, 1998
The function of pulmonary surfactant of a group of 14 preterm neonates (birth weight 907 +/- 60 g) who suffered from severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and who had received exogenous bovine lipid extracted surfactant on the first day of life was ...

Surfactant protein SP-B: one ring to rule the molecular and biophysical mechanisms of the pulmonary surfactant system. [PDF]

Biophys Rev
Pulmonary surfactant is a lipid/protein complex crucial to maintain mammalian lungs open, as it facilitates breathing mechanics through a dramatic reduction of surface tension at the air–liquid interface.

Surfactant protein a in cystic fibrosis: supratrimeric structure and pulmonary outcome. [PDF]

, 2012
The state of oligomerization of surfactant associated protein-A (SP-A) monomers differs between individuals. This likely affects SP-A's functional properties and could thereby influence clinical status in patients with lung diseases.

Analysis of lung surfactant phosphatidylcholine metabolism in transgenic mice using stable isotopes [PDF]

, 2011
Stable isotope labelling of lipid precursors coupled with mass spectrometry-based lipidomic analyses and determination of isotope enrichment in substrate, intermediate and product pools provide the parameters needed to determine absolute flux rates ...

Clinical biological and genetic heterogeneity of the inborn errors of pulmonary surfactant metabolism [PDF]

, 2001
Pulmonary surfactant is a multimolecular complex located at the air-water interface within the alveolus to which a range of physical (surface-active properties) and immune functions has been assigned. This complex consists of a surface-active lipid layer

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

, 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.

Comparison of frailty in patients with nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease and bronchiectasis: a prospective cohort study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background The incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease (NTM-LD) peaks in middle- and old age groups, coinciding with senescence; thus, chronic infectious diseases can accelerate frailty and worsen mental health in the elderly.

Latherin: a surfactant protein of horse sweat and saliva [PDF]

, 2009
Horses are unusual in producing protein-rich sweat for thermoregulation, a major component of which is latherin, a highly surface-active, non-glycosylated protein.
