Novel aroylated phenylenediamine compounds enhance antimicrobial defense and maintain airway epithelial barrier integrity
Abstract Aroylated phenylenediamines (APDs) are novel inducers of innate immunity enhancing cathelicidin gene expression in human bronchial epithelial cell lines. Here we present two newly developed APDs and aimed at defining the response and signaling pathways for these compounds with reference to...
