The dual role of cathelicidins in systemic inflammation
Immunology Letters, 2017Antimicrobial peptides are key components of the innate immune system. They act as broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, viruses, and fungi. More recently, antimicrobial peptides have been ascribed immunomodulatory functions, including roles in wound healing, induction of cytokines, and altering host gene ...

Inhibition of cathelicidin activity by bacterial exopolysaccharides
Molecular Microbiology, 2009SummaryThe interaction of bacterial exopolysaccharides, produced by opportunistic lung pathogens, with antimicrobial peptides of the innate primate immune system was investigated. The exopolysaccharides were produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Inquilinus limosus and clinical isolates of the Burkholderia cepacia complex, bacteria that are all involved ...

Differential regulation of cathelicidin in salmon and cod
Fish and Shellfish Immunology, 2013Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an important component of innate immunity in vertebrates. The cathelicidin family of AMPs is well characterized in mammals and has also been reported in several fish species. In this study we investigated the regulation of cathelicidin expression in a gadoid and a salmonid cell-line in order to dissect the signalling ...

Porcine cathelicidins and defensins
Medycyna Weterynaryjna, 2011<p>Hundreds of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) have been described in vertebrates, invertebrates, plants and even fungi. The present article describes the cathelicidins and defensins of pigs. Antimicrobial peptides possess direct antimicrobial activity against a wild spectrum of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses ect.) and the ability ...
