Changes in the lung alveolar proteins in some experimental conditions.

The Authors have directed their research to the alveolar lining (the surfactant) proteins and they have particularly studied its alterations in shock pathological conditions. Some rats have been subjected to haemorrhagic and toxic shock, by Escherichia Coli's lipopolysaccharide; then lung washing has been performed and on extracted liquid proteins have been studied by two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis (TDI). The obtained data have been encouraging and very useful for studies process.
