Purpose : To produce a new generation of artificial pulmonary surfactant(PS), surfactant protein
(SP)-B from human PSwas isolated, and the amino acid sequences of these proteins were
studied. Artificial peptides of human SP-B were synthesized. New artificial PS preparations which
were composed of phospholopids and two artificial synthetic SP-B peptides were made, and the
surface physical properties of these new PS preparations were tested.

Purpose : In this study, natural pulmonary surfactant was extracted from bovine lung lavage and
its surface activity was determined. To investigate the usefulness of synthetic peptides reconstituted
with phospholipid as artificial surfactant, truncated peptides from surfactant protein (SP)-B
were synthesized and restored the surface tension lowering activities when appropriately
recombined with phospholipid.
Methods : Crude natural surfactant(CNS) was isolated from lung lavage by centrifugation... |
