- [1.1] [#Atopic Dermatitis] [#Antimicrobial peptides]
- Atopic skin exhibits lower levels of certain HDPs such as #Dermcidin, human beta-defensin-2 (hBD-2), human beta-defensin-3 (hBD-3), and cathelicidin, as well as increased expression of #RNAse7 and S100A7 - [#Natural Skin Microbiome] [#Antimicrobial peptides] - Host-derived AMPs, also known as host defence peptides (HDP)s are either constitutively produced by keratinocytes and immune cells or induced in response to stimuli such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or inflammatory cytokines. Some important classes of HDPs include RNases, defensins, cathelicidins, dermcidin, and S100 class peptides. - Some important classes of HDPs include RNases, defensins, cathelicidins, dermcidin, and S100 class peptides.
