A Novel Peptide Oligomer of Bacitracin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization by Facilitating Ca<sup>2+</sup> Influx

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are components of the innate immune system and form the first defense against pathogens for various organisms. In the present study, we assessed whether CSP32, a novel AMP oligomer of bacitracin isolated from a strain of <i>Bacillus spp</i>., regulates the p...
