The pulmonary surfactant system constitutes an excellent example of how dynamic
membrane polymorphism governs some biological functions through specific lipid–lipid …

Lung surfactant (LS) is an outstanding example of how a highly regulated and dynamic
membrane-based system has evolved to sustain a wealth of structural reorganizations in …

Pulmonary surfactant is an essential lipid–protein complex to maintain an operative
respiratory surface at the mammalian lungs. It reduces surface tension at the alveolar air …

The respiratory surface in the mammalian lung is stabilized by pulmonary surfactant, a
membrane-based system composed of multiple lipids and specific proteins, the primary …

Pulmonary surfactant, the lipid-protein material that stabilizes the respiratory surface of the
lungs, contains approximately equimolar amounts of saturated and unsaturated …

This review briefly notes recent findings important for understanding the surface mechanical
functions of pulmonary surfactant. Currently known surfactant-specific proteins and lipids are …

Pulmonary surfactant is a lipid–protein complex, synthesized and secreted by the respiratory
epithelium of lungs to the alveolar spaces, whose main function is to reduce the surface …

The surfactant system of the lung has essential biophysical and immunomodulatory
functions. Only at the electron microscopic level does surfactant reveal its morphological …

In recent years, as the complexity of the surfactant system has become more apparent,
investigators with an increasingly diverse set of skills have been attracted to the study of this …

Pulmonary surfactant is a lipid–protein complex that lines and stabilizes the respiratory
interface in the alveoli, allowing for gas exchange during the breathing cycle. At the same …
