Effects of Perfluorocarbons on surfactant exocytosis and membrane properties in isolated alveolar type II cells

BACKGROUND: Perfluorocarbons (PFC) are used to improve gas exchange in diseased lungs. PFC have been shown to affect various cell types. Thus, effects on alveolar type II (ATII) cells and surfactant metabolism can be expected, data, however, are controversial. OBJECTIVE: The study was performed to t...
