Antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activity of host defense peptides, clavanins and LL-37, in vitro: An endodontic perspective.
Endodontic treatment is mainly based on root canal disinfection and its failure may be motivated by microbial resistance. Endodontic therapy can be benefitted by host defense peptides (HDPs), which are multifunctional molecules that act against persistent infection and inflammation. This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial, cytotoxic and immunomodulatory activity of several HDPs, namely clavanin A, clavanin A modified (MO) and LL-37, compared to intracanal medication Ca(OH) Topics: Animals; Anti-Infective Agents; Antimicrobial Cationic Peptides; Blood Proteins; Candida albicans; Cathelicidins; Humans; Infections; Inflammation; Interferon-gamma; Interleukin-10; Mice; Nitric Oxide; Peptides; RAW 264.7 Cells; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha | 2017 |
