Poractant alfa (Curosurf(®)) increases phagocytosis of apoptotic neutrophils by alveolar macrophages in vivo

BACKGROUND: Clearance of apoptotic neutrophils in the lung is an essential process to limit inflammation, since they could become a pro-inflammatory stimulus themselves. The clearance is partially mediated by alveolar macrophages, which phagocytose these apoptotic cells. The phagocytosis of apoptoti...
