hw does diabetes affect lung development?
dec surfactant production
saccular stage
hw do glucocorticoids affect lung development?
name 1?
inc sufactant production
dec alveolar division and bronchial length
betamethasone
how does reduced VEGF affect alveolar?

protein
cholesterol
Most abundant surfactant protein?
function?
SP A
opsonization of bact and fungi
MOA of SP B?
result of deficiency?
fusogenic – enhances spread and stability of surfactant monolayer
RDS and death
MOA of surfactant C?
2 complications of deficiency?
inheritance pattern?
hydrophobic – recruit phospholipids to lipid bilayer
interstitial pneumonitis, emphysema
AD
MOA of SP D?
innate immunity for bact, fungi, virus
wc surfactant is activated by SP B?
SP C

24 wk
3 things increasing surfactant secretion?
