Cell-mediated reduction of human β-defensin 1: a major role for mucosal thioredoxin

Human β-defensin 1 (hBD-1) is an antimicrobial peptide expressed by epithelia and hematopoietic cells. We demonstrated recently that hBD-1 shows activity against enteric commensals and Candida species only after its disulfide bonds have been reduced by thioredoxin (TRX) or a reducing environment.
