Human amniotic membrane as newly identified source of amniotic fluid pulmonary surfactant

Abstract Pulmonary surfactant (PS) reduces surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the alveolar epithelium of the lung, which is required for breathing and for the pulmonary maturity of the developing foetus. However, the origin of PS had never been thoroughly investigated, although it was as...
