abstract：:Surfactant protein D has multiple functions in innate immunity in the lung. The generation of SP-D knock-out mice has revealed a central role for this protein in the control of lung inflammation. Accumulating evidence in mouse models of infection and inflammation indicates that truncated recombinant forms of surfactan...
