LL37

LL-37 – Overview

LL-37 is a cationic antimicrobial peptide naturally produced by the human body.
It is primarily studied for immune defense, wound healing, and tissue protection.

LL-37 plays a key role in innate immunity, helping the body fight infections and support tissue repair.

How LL-37 Works

LL-37 works by:

✔ Antimicrobial activity

• Directly kills bacteria, viruses, and fungi

• Helps prevent infections in skin and mucous membranes

✔ Immune modulation

• Activates immune cells like macrophages and neutrophils

• Regulates inflammation to prevent excessive immune response

✔ Wound healing & tissue repair

• Promotes growth of new cells and tissue regeneration

• Supports angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels)

✔ Anti-inflammatory effects

• Reduces chronic inflammation while promoting healing
