Abstract excerpt
Human pulmonary surfactant protein A (SP-A) is genetically complex and its regulation may also be complex, reflecting genotypic variability. Fetal lung explants were used to study the regulation of the SP-A genes, SP-A1 and SP-A2, by dexamethasone, interferon, gamma (IFN gamma), cyclic 3',-5' adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha). For comparison, the mRNA levels of surfactant...
