Simulated Breathing: Application of Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Pulmonary Lung Surfactant
In this review, we delve into the topic of the pulmonary surfactant (PS) system, which is present in the respiratory system. The total composition of the PS has been presented and explored, from the types of cells involved in its synthesis and secretion, down to the specific building blocks used, su...
