Prosurfactant Protein C (Pro-SP-C) often referred to as SPC or by its abbreviated form SP-C is a hydrophobic peptide critical for lung function. This protein has a mass of approximately 21 kDa and is expressed prominently in the alveolar type II cells of the lung tissue. Beyond its full-length variant various pro forms such as proSP-C are studied for their roles during protein maturation and trafficking. These pro forms are essential for producing the mature functional SP-C a critical component of lung surfactant which reduces surface tension in alveoli and prevents lung collapse.
In surfactant homeostasis Prosurfactant Protein C associates with surfactant protein complexes where it interacts with phospholipids like phosphatidylcholine to stabilize the alveolar structures. As part of this complex it aids in reducing surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the alveoli and contributes to the host defense system by fostering pathogen clearance and modulating inflammation. The intricate processing of Pro-SP-C into its mature form involves fucosylation and other post-translational modifications which are key for functional surfactant activity.
The role of Prosurfactant Protein C is integral to the surfactant metabolism pathway affecting lung function and homeostasis. This pathway is important for proper respiratory mechanics and is closely linked to other surfactant proteins like SP-B and SP-D. These proteins work together within the lipid-protein matrix of the surfactant to ensure proper alveolar deflation and reinflation during respiration. Disruption within these pathways can have significant impact on lung health and respiratory physiology.
Mutations or dysfunctions in Prosurfactant Protein C are linked to interstitial lung diseases including pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. These conditions often result from misfolded proteins or improper surfactant metabolism leading to compromised lung function. Connections with disorders like these highlight interactions between Prosurfactant Protein C and C-reactive protein uncovering underlying inflammatory processes. Therapy and research often target these protein interactions and modifications as understanding them holds potential for strategic intervention in surfactant-related pathologies.

Terms & Conditions.
IHC image of Prosurfactant Protein C staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human lung performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab90716, 1ug/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
Prosurfactant Protein C was immunoprecipitated using 0.5mg Mouse Lung tissue, 5μg of Rabbit polyclonal to Prosurfactant Protein C and 50μl of protein G magnetic beads (+). No antibody was added to the control (-).
The antibody was incubated under agitation with Protein G beads for 10min, Mouse Lung tissue lysate diluted in RIPA buffer was added to each sample and incubated for a further 10min under agitation.
Proteins were eluted by addition of 40μl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70°C; 10μl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with ab90716.
