LL-37
Also known as: hCAP18/LL-37, human cathelicidin, CAMP gene peptide, cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, CRAMP (murine ortholog)
Antimicrobial peptide / Host defense peptide (Cathelicidin family)
What it is
LL-37 is the sole human cathelicidin, encoded by the CAMP gene and cleaved extracellularly from its 18 kDa precursor protein hCAP18. It is a cationic (+6 net charge at pH 7.4), amphipathic, helical peptide that exerts broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against bacteria (gram-positive and gram-negative), fungi, viruses, and parasites through multiple mechanisms including membrane permeabilization and pore formation, disruption of microbial biofilms, targeting of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA), oxidative stress induction, inhibition of cell adhesion, and interference with viral envelope and replication (PMID 41270816; PMID 26556394; PMID 38057654). LL-37 activates multiple host cell surface receptors (including FPR2/FPRL1, P2X7, EGF receptor, TLR4, and MrgX2) and intracellular targets, initiating diverse downstream signaling pathways (PMID 27609777; PMID 28549244; PMID 39643165). It modulates innate immunity by binding and inactivating bacterial endotoxins, promoting chemotaxis of immune cells, regulating apoptosis (both pro- and anti-apoptotic depending on cell type and concentration), inducing NET formation, and exerting both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects (PMID 40063262; PMID 42794783; PMID 31046155). Its expression is upregulated by vitamin D via CAMP gene activation, UV light, microbial infection, and injury (PMID 38642493; PMID 34565561). LL-37 also promotes wound healing, angiogenesis, keratinocyte migration and proliferation, and tissue repair (PMID 57; PMID 18). Biological effects are highly context-dependent, varying with peptide concentration, cell type, receptor expression, disease stage, and local microenvironment (PMID 42095322; PMID 41916132).
