Surfactant protein D attenuates sub-epithelial fibrosis in allergic airways disease through TGF-β

BACKGROUND: Surfactant protein D (SP-D) can regulate both innate and adaptive immunity. Recently, SP-D has been shown to contribute to the pathogenesis of airway allergic inflammation and bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. However, in allergic airways disease, the role of SP-D in airway remodelin...
