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

Impact of cationic host defence peptide LL-37 on human neutrophil death and inflammatory responses [PDF]
Cathelicidins are cationic host defence peptides (CHDP) with essential roles in the innate defence system. These peptides have antimicrobial potential and the capacity to modulate innate immunity and inflammatory processes.
