Cathelicidin also known as LL-37 peptide is an antimicrobial peptide with a mass of around 18 kDa. It plays an important role in the innate immune system by disrupting microbial membranes. LL-37 is expressed in various tissues including skin mucosal surfaces and certain immune cells. These peptides protect the host from infection by directly killing bacteria viruses and fungi and by modulating immune responses.
Biological function summary
Peptides like Cathelicidin are essential for host defense mechanisms contributing to cell signaling and pathogen clearance. LL-37 does not function within a complex but acts independently to influence immune cell chemotaxis. It promotes wound healing angiogenesis and tissue repair thereby ensuring rapid response to injury or infection.
Pathways
Cathelicidin interacts within inflammatory and wound healing pathways. It is involved in the NF-kB signaling pathway which regulates immune response and is linked to TLR (Toll-like receptor) pathways impacting cytokine production and further immune modulation. Proteins such as defensins share similar pathways indicating their collective influence in antimicrobial defense and tissue repair.
Peptides like Cathelicidin are associated with conditions like psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Overexpression or dysregulation of LL-37 can exacerbate inflammation in these autoimmune skin disorders. Related to these diseases proteins such as interleukins (IL-1 and IL-6) are often co-expressed or influenced by Cathelicidin levels indicating their intertwined role in skin homeostasis and immune responses.
