Association of Vitamin D Supplementation with VDR and CAMP Expression and Ulcer Healing in Diabetic Foot Infection Involving Biofilm-Forming Bacteria: An Exploratory Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Background/Objectives: Diabetic foot infections (DFIs) are a major cause of morbidity and lower-limb amputation. Vitamin D exerts immunomodulatory effects through vitamin D receptor (VDR), which regulates the cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP ...

Tissue-specific Regulation of Innate Immune Responses by Human Cathelicidin LL-37

open access: yes, 2018
Cathelicidins form one of the major families of antimicrobial peptides and have been identified in many vertebrates, including humans. LL-37, the only human member of the cathelicidin family, is detected in most sites of the human body that is normally

Cathelicidin LL-37 Increases Lung Epithelial Cell Stiffness, Decreases Transepithelial Permeability, and Prevents Epithelial Invasion by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yes, 2011
In addition to its antibacterial activity, the cathelicidin-derived LL-37 peptide induces multiple immunomodulatory effects on host cells. Atomic force microscopy, F-actin staining with phalloidin, passage of FITC-conjugated dextran through a monolayer ...
