Journal ArticleDOI
Radioimmunoassay of Pulmonary Surface-Active Material in the Tracheal Fluid of the Fetal Lamb1, 2

TL;DR: The ratio of lipid phosphorus to antigen increased approximately 5-fold as the lungs passed from canalicular toAlveolar architecture and approximated the adult ratio only during the alveolar stage of development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of glyceryl ethers in the phosphatidylcholine fraction of surfactant from dog lungs.
TL;DR: In three out of seven animals platelet-activating factor-like activity, as determined by a platelet aggregation assay, was isolated by TLC and this aggregating activity was lost upon base-catalyzed methanolysis, but was restored by functional levels after acetylation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of inhibiting protein synthesis on the secretion of surfactant by type II cells in primary culture.

TL;DR: The results, together with those of previous kinetic studies, suggest that the lipid and protein constituents of surfactant may be contained within lamellar bodies prior to their release into the extracellular environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
An uncommon phosphatidylcholine specific for surface-active material in canine lung.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic Fate of the Apoproteins of Pulmonary Surfactant1, 2
TL;DR: It seems to me, however, that recent experimental evidence clearly confirms pulmonary surfactant's ability to decrease the surface tension of the alveolar gas-liquid interface.
