Isolation of human β-defensin-4 in lung tissue and its increase in lower respiratory tract infection
BACKGROUND: Human β-defensin-4 (hBD-4), a new member of the β-defensin family, was discovered by an analysis of the genomic sequence. The objective of this study was to clarify hBD-4 expression in human lung tissue, along with the inducible expression in response to infectious stimuli, localization,...
