Abstract

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are disorders associated to a pathological immune response. Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is part of the innate host defense and has known anti-inflammatory effects. We hypothesize that SP-D dampens dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis by reducing innate inflammatory signaling and facilitation clearance of apoptotic cells. We induced experimental colitis in C57BL/6N Sftpd-/- (KO) and Sftpd+/+ (WT) mice by administration of 1% or 1.5% DSS for 7 days.
