In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.

Ex Input:
Context: Coagulation Factor XIII (FXIII) plays an important role in wound healing by stabilizing fibrin clots and cross-linking extracellular matrix proteins. FXIII is expressed in cells of the monocyte/macrophage and dendritic cell lineages in response to type 2 cytokines.', 'We sought to determine the association between FXIII and asthma pathobiology.', 'We analyzed the expression of FXIII mRNA and protein levels in bronchoalveolar lavage samples obtained before and after segmental allergen challenge from patients with mild asthma and in induced sputum samples collected from patients with mild-to-moderate and severe asthma.', 'FXIII mRNA and protein levels were highly upregulated in bronchoalveolar cells and fluid after allergen challenge and mRNA levels correlated with protein levels. In sputum of asthmatic patients, FXIII expression was positively correlated with type 2 immune response and dendritic cell markers (CD209 and CD207). FXIII expression was also associated with increased airflow limitation (FEV1/forced vital capacity and residual volume/total lung capacity ratios) and greater reversibility to β-agonists.\Question: Does airway factor XIII associate with type 2 inflammation and airway obstruction in asthmatic patients?

Ex Output:
FXIII expression was upregulated in the airways of asthmatic patients after allergen exposure. Expression in the sputum of asthmatic patients correlated with the type 2 immune response and airflow limitation. Excessive activity of FXIII could contribute to the pathophysiology of airway obstruction in asthmatic patients.


Ex Input:
Context: To investigate the existence condition of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) termination codon bias.', 'A total of 174 reference sequences of all kinds of Hepatitis B virus(HBV) genotypes were chosen from GenBank, and compared by BioEdit. Then secondary structure of RNA was constructed and analyzed together.', '(1) There were two types of HBsAg termination codon: TAA and TGA in 174 reference sequences. TAA was in 124 cases (71.26%); and TGA in 50 cases (28.74%). (2) There was codon bias selection in HBsAg termination codon, and it could affect the secondary structure of RNA and amino acid sequence encoding protein.\Question: Does [ Hepatitis B surface antigen terminate codon bias selection ]?

Ex Output:
HBsAg termination codon bias exists and may be related to RNA structure and the conservation of protein function in the evolutionary progress.


Ex Input:
Context: Intact surface active agent (surfactant) composed of surfactant-associated proteins (SPs) and lipids is necessary for respiration and prevents alveoli from collapsing. CD26, a transmembrane glycoprotein exerting dipeptidyl peptidase activity (DPP4), highly expressed in lung parenchyma, is involved in inflammatory processes. A pharmacological inhibition of DPP4 influenced not only the inflammation but also elevated the SPs. Thus, DPP4 inhibitors may be a novel drug for treatment of diseases with surfactant deficiency. Therefore, we tested firstly the hypothesis that DPP4 inhibitors increase the expression of SPs in healthy rats.', 'SP mRNA and protein expression were determined different times after nebulization of aerosolized DPP4 inhibitors [L-isoleucine-thiazolidide (L-Ile-Thia), L-valine-pyrrolidide (L-Val-Pyrr)], budesonide, saline or stereoisomers.', 'Compared with negative controls (1) L-Ile-Thia as well as budesonide led to a significant higher and L-Val-Pyrr had the tendency to a significant higher expression of SP-A mRNA 6 h after nebulization, (2) the expression of SP-D mRNA increased significantly 6 h after nebulization with L-Ile-Thia and 3 and 6 h after nebulization with Val-pyrr, (3) SP-B mRNA levels showed significantly higher values 3 and 6 h after nebulization with L-Val-Pyrr, (4) protein levels of SP-A, SP-B and SP-C were elevated significantly 6 h after nebulization with L-Val-Pyrr as well as with budesonide, and (5) phospholipids were also increased in response to DPP4 inhibition; the minimal surface tension was comparable.\Question: Do dPP4 inhibitors increase differentially the expression of surfactant proteins in Fischer 344 rats?

Ex Output:

DPP4 inhibition influence differently the expression of surfactant proteins in healthy rats and may be suitable to elevate surfactant synthesis in different diseases accompanied with surfactant deficiencies.
