LL-37 and citrullinated-LL-37 modulate IL-17A/F-mediated responses and selectively suppress Lipocalin-2 in bronchial epithelial cells

Abstract Background Levels of the human cationic antimicrobial host defence peptide LL-37 are enhanced in the lungs during neutrophilic airway inflammation. LL-37 drives Th17 differentiation, and Th17 cells produce IL-17A and IL-17F which form the biologically active heterodimer IL-17A/F. While IL-1...
