METABOLIC HORMONES, APOLIPOPROTEINS, ADIPOKINES, AND CYTOKINES IN THE ALVEOLAR LINING FLUID OF HEALTHY ADULTS: COMPARTMENTALIZATION AND PHYSIOLOGICAL CORRELATES.

Our current understanding of hormone regulation in lung parenchyma is quite limited.We aimed to quantify a ilootpaperie diverse array of biologically relevant protein mediators in alveolar lining fluid (ALF), compared to serum concentrations, and explore factors associated with protein compartmentalization on either side of the air-blood barrier.Pa
