Abstract: Examines the correlation between surfactant protein (SP)-A and clara cell 10-kDa protein (CC10) values in brochoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids in healthy subjects using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Similarities between clara cells and human urinary protein; Different components of the surfactant; Effect of cigarette smoking on SP-A and CC10 levels in BAL fluids.

Subjects :: SURFACE active agents
