SP-A binds alpha(1)-antitrypsin in vitro and reduces the association rate constant for neutrophil elastase

BACKGROUND: α1-antitrypsin and surfactant protein-A (SP-A) are major lung defense proteins. With the hypothesis that SP-A could bind α1-antitrypsin, we designed a series of in vitro experiments aimed at investigating the nature and consequences of such an interaction. METHODS AND RESULTS: At an α1-a...
