Description
Secreted cytokine-like protein (By similarity). Binds to the scavenger receptor MARCO (By similarity). Can also bind to pathogens including the Gram-positive bacterium L.monocytogenes, the Gram-negative bacterium P.aeruginosa, and yeast (By similarity). Strongly inhibits phospholipase A2 (PLA2G1B) activity (PubMed:24213919). Seems to have anti-inflammatory effects in respiratory epithelium (PubMed:16456148, PubMed:25242865). Also has anti-fibrotic activity in lung (PubMed:24213919, PubMed:26559674). May play a role in fetal lung development and maturation (PubMed:18535256). Promotes branching morphogenesis during early stages of lung development (PubMed:18535256). In the pituitary, may inhibit production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) (PubMed:24514953).
