Svensson D, Nilsson B
Inflamm Res
. 2025 Mar;
74(1):36.
PMID: 40063262
Background: Human cathelicidin LL-37 shows activity towards both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, and it is also active against some types of viruses. Besides its antimicrobial effects, the peptide modulates innate...

PMID: 38858497
Myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTFs: myocardin/MYOCD, MRTF-A/MRTFA, and MRTF-B/MRTFB) suppress production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in human smooth muscle cells (SMCs) through sequestration of RelA in the NF-κB complex, but...

PMID: 38642493
The human cathelicidin LL-37 shows activity against microorganisms, but it is also cytotoxic to host cells. The CAMP gene codes for the LL-37 precursor hCAP18 which is processed extracellularly to...

PMID: 36573202
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate if desquamated oral epithelial cells (DOECs) express the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and if these cells thereby may contribute to salivary...

PMID: 35203701
The human host defense peptide LL-37 influences double-stranded RNA signaling, but this process is not well understood. Here, we investigate synergistic actions of LL-37 and synthetic double-stranded RNA (poly I:C)...

PMID: 34988298
The human antimicrobial peptide LL-37 permeabilizes the plasma membrane of host cells, but LL-37-induced direct effects on mitochondrial membrane permeability and function has not been reported. Here, we demonstrate that...

Cell Type Dependent Suppression of Inflammatory Mediators by Myocardin Related Transcription Factors
Liu L, Bankell E, Rippe C, Moren B, Stenkula K, Nilsson B, et al.
Front Physiol
. 2021 Oct;
12:732564.
PMID: 34671275
Myocardin related transcription factors (MRTFs: MYOCD/myocardin, MRTF-A, and MRTF-B) play a key role in smooth muscle cell differentiation by activating contractile genes. In atherosclerosis, MRTF levels change, and most notable...

79(6):466-472.
PMID: 33687301
Objective: The antimicrobial peptide hCAP18/LL-37 is detected in desquamated epithelial cells of human whole saliva, but the functional importance of this pool of hCAP18/LL-37 is not understood. Here, we assess...

J Periodontal Res
. 2020 Dec;
56(2):249-255.
PMID: 33305420
It is well recognized that human periodontal ligament cells (PDL cells) may represent local immune cells of the periodontal tissues. However, it is unclear whether they represent "true" immune cells,...

PMID: 33129893
The host defense peptide LL-37 is active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, but it has also been shown to reduce human host cell viability. However, the mechanisms behind LL-37-induced...
