Association of Serum Surfactant Protein D and SFTPD gene variants with asthma in Danish children, adolescents and young adults
2022-03-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Surfactant Protein D (SP-D) is a pattern recognition molecule belonging to the collectin family expressed in multiple human organ systems including the lungs. Previous studies have shown that SP-D concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage samples decreases and serum concentrations increases in patients with asthma possibly attributable to a combination of induced SP-D synthesis and decreased a...
