The Role of Der p 23 Sensitization: An Analysis of 474 Patients Sensitized to Mite.

abstract：:Recent studies have demonstrated that pulmonary surfactant protein (SP)-A plays a potential role in modifying inflammation and immune function. To see whether SP-A could modify IL-8 production and release by eosinophils stimulated with ionomycin, SP-A purified from surfactant recovered from patients with alveolar prot...
