Human Beta Defensin 3 induces maturation of human langerhans cell like dendritic cells: An antimicrobial peptide that functions as an endogenous adjuvant

Human beta defensins (hBDs) are antimicrobial peptides that play an important role in innate immune responses at epithelial barriers such as the skin. However, the role that hBDs play in initiating cellular immune responses that contribute to antigen-specific adaptive immunity is not well understood...
