Incidence of asthma and mortality in a cohort of young adults: a 7-year prospective study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:ABCA3 transporter (ATP-binding cassette transporter of the A subfamily) is localized to the limiting membrane of lamellar bodies, organelles for assembly and storage of pulmonary surfactant in alveolar epithelial type II cells (AECII). It transports surfactant phospholipids into lamellar bodies and absence o...
