Antimicrobial peptides: key components of the innate immune system

TL;DR: An overview of cationic antimicrobial peptides, origin, structure, functions, and mode of action of AMPs, which are highly expressed and found in humans, as well as a brief discussion about widely abundant, well characterized AMPs in mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteinases of common pathogenic bacteria degrade and inactivate the antibacterial peptide LL-37

TL;DR: The results indicate that proteolytic degradation of LL‐37 is a common virulence mechanism and that molecules which block this degradation could have therapeutic potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

The humanistic and economic burden of chronic wounds: A systematic review.

TL;DR: A systematic review of chronic wounds revealed that health‐related quality of life was lowest for physical pathologies, and based on average estimates were scores most inferior in the domain physical role for both patients with chronic wounds and for those with wound‐related amputations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The humanistic and economic burden of chronic wounds: a protocol for a systematic review.

TL;DR: A systematic review of multiple databases for studies on adult patients with chronic wounds and with the primary objective to assess the impact on health-related quality of life by category of ulcers, and associated direct and indirect costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of chronic wounds in the general population: systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies.

TL;DR: The findings showed that the vast majority of chronic wounds in epidemiological studies are made up by chronic leg ulcers, which is aligned to previous studies reporting point prevalence of chronic injuries identified within the healthcare system.
