ABSTRACT:
Methods and compositions for the treatment of the symptoms of a patient who has a pulmonary condition associated with an inhibition of surfactant secretion by type II alveolar cells are described. The method of treatment involves causing a patient to inhale an amount of a pH-raising buffer effective to raise the pH of the aqueous fluid in the microenvironment of the type II alveolar cell lumenal surface, thereby inducing an increase in the rate of surfactant secretion by type II alveolar cells.
