3. Regulation and function of the Clara cell secretory protein
Sammanfattning : The Clara cell secretory protein (CCSP; also known as Polychlorinated Biphenyl-binding protein (PCB-BP) or Uteroglobin) is specifically produced and secreted into the distal airway lumen by the non-ciliated Clara cell. It is a low molecular weight homodimeric protein and binds certain metabolites of PCBs as well as progestins and calcium. LÄS MER
