Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a member of the collectin family of innate defense proteins.
Members of this family share four distinct structural domains: an N-terminal cross-linking …

Surfactant proteins (SP)-A and-D are members of the collectin family of host defense
proteins that share four distinct structural domains: NH2-terminal oligomerization …

Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a 43-kDa member of the collectin family of collagenous lectin
domain-containing proteins that is expressed in epithelial cells of the lung. The SP-D gene …

Surfactant protein D (SP-D) and serum conglutinin are closely related members of the
collectin family of host defense lectins. Although normally synthesized at different anatomic …

Surfactant protein D (SP-D), a member of the collectin superfamily, modulates pulmonary
inflammatory responses and innate immunity. Disruption of the SP-D gene in mice induces …

Surfactant protein‐D (SP‐D) is a member of the collectin family of collagenous proteins with
lectin activity. SP‐D is expressed in numerous tissues, primarily in type II alveolar cells in the …

Pulmonary surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a member of the collectin family that plays an
important role in regulating innate immunity of the lung. We examined the mechanisms by …

Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a member of the collectin family of the innate host defense
proteins. In the lung, SP-D is expressed primarily by type II cells. Gene-targeted SP-D …

Pulmonary surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a member of the collectin family and plays crucial
roles in the innate immunity of the lung. We have previously shown that surfactant protein A …

Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is one of two collectins found in the pulmonary alveolus. On the
basis of homology with other collectins, potential functions for SP-D include roles in innate …
