pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B - CISMeF
Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein BMeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B;
MeSH definition : A pulmonary surfactant associated-protein that plays an essential role in alveolar
stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface. Inherited deficiency
of pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B is one cause of RESPIRATORY DISTRESS
