TL;DR: Findings suggest that the mechanism of hBD3 anti‐inflammatory activity involves specific targeting of TLR signaling pathways resulting in transcriptional repression of pro‐inflammatory genes.
Book ChapterDOI
Mammalian Antimicrobial Peptides; Defensins and Cathelicidins
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on two families of mammalian peptides; the defensins and the cathelicidins, concentrating primarily on human peptides, but with reference to homologous peptides in mouse models.
