The antimicrobial peptide LL-37 triggers release of apoptosis-inducing factor and shows direct effects on mitochondria

The human antimicrobial peptide LL-37 permeabilizes the plasma membrane of host cells, but LL-37-induced direct effects on mitochondrial membrane permeability and function has not been reported. Here, we demonstrate that LL-37 is rapidly (within 20 min) internalized by human osteoblast-like MG63 cel...
