HYB 246-04B

HYB 246-04 is specific for SP-D from amniotic fluid, serum and bronchioalveolar lavage. HYB 246-04does not influence SP-D’s binding to carbohydrates, but block binding to GP-340.

Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is synthesized and secreted by lung epithelial cells. It belongs to group III of the family of C-type lectins and members of this group has overall structure consisting of multiple globular "head" regions linked by triple-helical, collagen-like, strands. This group also includes SP-A and the serum proteins mannan-binding protein, conglutinin and collectin-43, all of which have been shown to bind to the C1q receptor found on a wide variety of cells. Both SP-D and SP-A have been shown to enhance oxygen radical production by alveolar macrophages. The serum concentration is approximately 700 ng/ml in healthy individuals.Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is synthesized and secreted by lung epithelial cells.
