MeSH Heading: Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein B
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.701; D12.776.823.124
Unique ID: D037701
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D037701
Scope Note: A pulmonary surfactant associated-protein that plays an essential role in alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface. Inherited deficiency of pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B is one cause of RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME, NEWBORN.
