Human Beta-Defensin 2 and 3 Inhibit HIV-1 Replication in Macrophages
Human beta-defensins (hBDs) are broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptides, secreted by epithelial cells of the skin and mucosae, and astrocytes, which we and others have shown to inhibit HIV-1 in primary CD4(+) T cells. Although loss of CD4(+) T cells contributes to mucosal immune dysfunction, macrophag...
