The Effect of Calcipotriol on the Expression of Human Defensin-2 and LL-37 in Cultured Human Keratinocytes
Figure 5
The expression of LL-37 protein in keratinocytes was evaluated by Western blotting using polyclonal antibody to LL-37 at 6, 12, and 24 hours post stimulation. The expression of LL-37 was downregulated after additional treatment with calcipotriol compared to the stimulated keratinocytes with LPS, TNF-, and UVB irradiation.
