Abstract

See full text

A means and method for treating pulmonary fibrosis and vaginitis in animals is described. The compositions include surfactant lipids in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Surfactant lipids have been found to suppress the synergistic effect of bleomycin and SP-A in enhancing proinflammatory cytokine production. Surfactant lipids are also effective in the prevention and treatment of pulmonary fibrosis resulting from exposure to inflammatory agents affecting cytokine production. Furthermore, surfactant lipids are effective in treating attenuating the effect of proinflammatory cytokine production in vaginitis.
