Antimicrobial peptides: key components of the innate immune system (2012, background): “A literature review identifies no more than 30 papers aiming to address this problem Yang et al., 2004b; Moon et al., 2006; Mehrnejad et al., 2008; Renye and Somkuti, 2008; Panavas et al., 2009; Bommarius et al., 2010; Cao et al., 2010; Li et al., 2010; Shen et al., 2010.”
Mechanisms and consequences of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial peptides. (2016, background): “Expression of AMPs Human AMPs are expressed in a wide variety of cells of the mmune system, including neutrophils, NK, and T cells, as well as in he epithelial cells lining tissues facing the external environment Yang et al., 2004).”
Macrophage activation by endogenous danger signals (2008, background): “Generally, monocytes and macrophages do not produce defensins, despite earlier studies in which rabbit lung macrophages were the sources for the isolation of defensins [83].”
Multifunctional cationic host defence peptides and their clinical applications (2011, unknown): “1) [38, 115, 116, 120].”
Peptide Antimicrobial Agents (2006, background): “immunomodulatory functions and may be involved in the control of inflammation, which serves to recruit a variety of other microbicidal mechanisms (24, 265, 266).”
Mammalian defensins in the antimicrobial immune response (2005, background): “In both cases, the host's cellular response includes the synthesis and/or mobilization of antimicrobial peptides that are capable of directly killing a variety of pathogen”
Cationic host defense (antimicrobial) peptides. (2006, background): “Immune enhancement There is also some indication that cathelicidins and defensins can act at the interface of innate and adaptive immunity [4], modulating DC function [64] and antigen-specific immune responses.”
How are TH2-type immune responses initiated and amplified? (2010, background): “Interestingly, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin with ribonuclease activity serves as an endogenous alarmin to activate myeloid DCs through the TLR2–myeloid differentiation primary-response protein 88 (MYD88) pathway and promotes T H 2 cell response”
