Classical macrophage polarisation is limited by human β-defensin-3 via an autocrine IL-4 dependent process
2021-05-06
Abstract excerpt
Human β-defensin 3 (HBD3), is an anti-microbial host-defence peptide, that can rapidly enter macrophages to modulate TLR4 responses to lipopolysaccharide. However, the molecular mechanisms by which HBD3 exerts this anti-inflammatory influence remain unclear. Here, we show mice deleted for the orthologue of HBD3 have an increased acute lipopolysaccharide response in vivo . Furthermore, we found that HBD3 limited t...
