Cathelicidin senses enteric pathogen <i>Salmonella typhimurium/</i> LPS for colonic chemokine generation: a new innate immune role for a host defense peptide
2018-08-10
Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms by which epithelia identify and respond to pathogens are manifold, nuanced and complex. Here, using human-colon derived HT29 epithelial cells, mouse and human primary colonoids, and cathelicidin null (Cramp) mice, we report a novel immunoregulatory role for the antimicrobial peptide, cathelicidin, that was found to recognize and synergise with Salmonella typhimurium or its derived virulence factor...
