Premie has no surfactant

Angiotensin II - generated in hypovolemia

Dipalmitoyl lecithin aka dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine lung surfactant

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate aka PIP2 Gq receptor pathway

Phosphatidylserine -involved in intrinsic apoptosis when exposed on extracellular surfaces

Sphinogmyelin - composes myelin and also has roles in signal transduction, apoptosis. Lecithin: Sphingomyelin ratio >2 indicates mature fetal lungs.
