Genetic abnormalities of pulmonary surfactant were identified by DNA sequence analysis in 14 (12 full-term, 2 preterm) of 17 newborn infants with fatal respiratory distress of unknown etiology. Deficiency of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette protein, member A3 (n = 12) was a more frequent cause of this phenotype than deficiency of surfactant protein B (n = 2).
通过DNA序列分析,在17例病因不明的致命性呼吸窘迫新生儿中,有14例(12例足月儿,2例早产儿)发现了肺表面活性物质的基因异常。三磷酸腺苷结合盒蛋白A3缺乏(n = 12)比表面活性物质蛋白B缺乏(n = 2)更常导致这种表型。
