Increased alpha-defensins 1-3 production by dendritic cells in HIV-infected individuals is associated with slower disease progression.
<h4>Background</h4>Defensins are natural endogenous antimicrobial peptides with potent anti-HIV activity and immuno-modulatory effects. We recently demonstrated that immature dendritic cells (DC) produce alpha-defensins1-3 and that alpha-defensins1-3 modulate DC generation and maturation...
