Control of pulmonary surfactant secretion : an evolutionary perspective

Bibliography: leaves 209-254. Attempts to construct an evolutionary overview of the regulation of surfactant secretion among the vertebrates. A detailed whole animal and in vitro study of the factors that control surfactant secretion and function in the central Australian agamid lizard Pogona vitticeps was undertaken. Type II pneumocytes were also isolated and cultured from Australian lungfish, North American bullfrogs and fat-tailed dunnarts.
