Bee-derived antibacterial peptide, defensin-1, promotes wound re-epithelialisation in vitro and in vivo
Abstract Royal jelly (RJ) has successfully been used as a remedy in wound healing. RJ has multiple effects, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities, in various cell types. However, no component(s) (other than antibacterial) have been identified in RJ-accelerated wo...
