Pulmonary surfactant function is impaired in asthmatics after segmental allergen challenge
Abstract
Airway obstruction in asthma may in part be due to surfactant dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to investigate surfactant function and composition in brochoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids of healthy controls (C-) and asthmatics (A-) before and after segmental allergen challenge.
