Surfactant protein D prevents mucin overproduction in airway goblet cells via SIRPα
Abstract Mucin overproduction is a common feature of chronic airway diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and exacerbates their underlying respiratory condition. Surfactant protein D (SP-D) protects against airway diseases through modulation of immune reactions, b...
