The proteins of the lung alveolar lining.
The protein composition of the lung washing has been analysed by immunochemical methods: it has been possible to demonstrate the presence of many proteins, mainly albumin, immunoglobulins and beta-globulins, some of them seem laying in the alveolar lining and having the function of stabilizing the surfactant system.
