No difference in inflammatory mediator expression between mast cell-rich and mast cell-poor rosacea lesions in Korean patients: a comparative study [PDF]

The Ewha Medical Journal
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between mast cell (MC) density in rosacea-affected skin and the expression of key inflammatory mediators, including IL-6, TNF-α, and cathelicidin LL-37.

Antimicrobial peptides and other potential biomarkers of critical illness in SARS‐CoV‐2 patients with acute kidney injury. AMPAKI‐CoV study

Physiological Reports
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) constitute a complex network of 10–100 amino acid sequence molecules widely distributed in nature. While over 300 AMPs have been described in mammals, cathelicidins and defensins remain the most extensively studied.

The role of cathelicidins in neutrophil biology

Journal of Leukocyte Biology
Abstract Despite their relatively short lifespan, neutrophils are tasked with counteracting pathogens through various functions, including phagocytosis, production of reactive oxygen species, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), and host defense peptides.
