Carbamylated LL-37 as a modulator of the immune response

The human antimicrobial peptide LL-37 is a multifunctional modulator of innate immune responses.

The role of LL-37, a human cationic antimicrobial peptide, in the immune system is not yet clearly understood. It is a widely expressed peptide that can be up-regulated during an immune response. In this report, we demonstrate that LL-37 is a potent antisepsis agent with the ability to inhibit macrophage stimulation by bacterial components such as LPS, lipoteichoic acid, and noncapped lipoarabi...

تلمیح یکی از عناصری است که تقریباً در همه ی متون ادبی یافت و باعث ایجاد شکاف های فرهنگی می شود. در این تحقیق به عنوان شکلی از بینامتنیت در ترجمه مورد توجه قرار می گیرد. تلاش شده است تا راهکارهای مترجمان برای ترجمه چهار نوع اسامی خاص و عبارات کلیدی تلمیحی (مذهبی، سیاسی، تاریخی و اسطوره ای) موجود در رمانِ چهره مرد هنرمند در جوانی به فارسی بررسی شود. این تحقیق مقایسه ای بر اساس راهکارهای ترجمه تلمیح...

Lactoferrin as a natural immune modulator.

Lactoferrin, an iron-binding glycoprotein, is a cell-secreted mediator that bridges innate and adaptive immune function in mammals. It is a pleiotropic molecule that directly assists in the influence of presenting cells for the development of T-helper cell polarization. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of research regarding the role of lactoferrin in maintaining immune homeostas...

The roles of cathelicidin LL-37 in immune defences and novel clinical applications.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW LL-37 is the only member of the cathelicidin family of host defence peptides expressed in humans. It is primarily produced by phagocytic leucocytes and epithelial cells, and mediates a wide range of biological responses: direct killing of microorganisms, chemotaxis and chemokine induction, regulation of inflammatory responses, as well as adjuvant, angiogenic and wound healing ...
