Surfactant Protein D in Respiratory and Non-Respiratory Diseases
Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a multimeric collectin that is involved in innate immune defense and expressed in pulmonary, as well as non-pulmonary, epithelia. SP-D exerts antimicrobial effects and dampens inflammation through direct microbial interactions and modulation of host cell responses via a series of cellular receptors. However, low protein concentrations, genetic variation, biochemic...
متن کاملSurfactant Protein D And C-Reactive Protein in patients with lower respiratory tract infections
In the world researches the role of destabilization of surfactant system of the lungs is being studied more and more often, as well the role of proteins being the part of it, and which play an important role in providing its stability. Considering that, the aim of our work was assessing diagnostic significance of surfactant protein D (SP-D) in patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) an...

متن کاملSurfactant protein-d enhances phagocytosis and pulmonary clearance of respiratory syncytial virus.
Surfactant protein (SP)-D gene targeted (SP-D-/-) and wild-type mice were infected with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by intratracheal instillation. Decreased clearance of RSV was observed in SP-D-/- mice. Deficiency of SP-D was associated with increased inflammation and inflammatory cell recruitment in the lung after infection. In vitro, SP-D bound RSV-infected Vero cells. Binding was inhi...
