Surfactant Protein A (SP-A) is an innate immune modulator produced by the lung with known protective effects against bacteria and viruses. Its role in asthma, an inflammatory lung disease that affects 10% of the world's population, is not entirely known. In this review, we demonstrate that SP-A confers protection against exposure to interleukin-13, a type 2 cytokine integral to eosinophilic asthma, in a mouse model of SP-A deficiency, a house dust mite model of asthma, and in human bronchial epithelial cells from participants with asthma. We also show that small peptides derived from SP-A, such as the major allele of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1965708, which includes the carbohydrate recognition domain of SP-A2 at position 223, reduce airway hyperresponsiveness, airway eosinophils, and mucus in a mouse model of asthma. These data suggest that SP-A has beneficial effects relevant to asthma and that an SP-A peptide may have a new therapeutic use in asthma.

Despite higher per-capita health care spending than any other country, the United States lags far behind in health outcomes. Additionally, there are significant health inequities by race, ethnicity, socioeconomic position, and rurality. One set of potential solutions to improve these outcomes and reduce inequities is through health policy. Policy focused on improving access to care through insurance coverage, such as the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion, has led to better health and reduced mortality. Policy aimed at improving health care delivery, including value-based payment and alternative payment models, has improved quality of care but has had little impact on population health outcomes. Policies that influence broader issues of economic opportunity likely have a strong influence on health, but lack the evidence base of more targeted interventions. To advance health outcomes and equity, further policy change is crucial.
