Research Information
LL-37 is a synthetic 37-amino-acid peptide identical to the only human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, studied for its role in innate immunity research. Researchers are interested in its dual function — both as a direct antimicrobial against bacterial membranes and as an immunomodulator affecting cytokine signalling, wound-healing pathways, and angiogenesis in cell-culture studies. Most published work has used keratinocyte and immune cell lines to examine these mechanisms.
Research areas
- Antimicrobial mechanism studies
- Innate immunity cell-line research
- Wound-healing pathway cell models
- Keratinocyte cell-line studies
Analytical methods
Identity and purity are typically confirmed at source by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry. HelixCore products are batch tested for identity and purity as standard.
Storage and handling
Store lyophilised at -20°C, away from moisture and direct light. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the timeframe specified on the source datasheet.
For Research Use Only. Not for human or veterinary use.
Batch tested
Every batch is tested for identity and purity (98%+) before it reaches our UK stock.
