β-Defensin Strengthens Antimicrobial Peritoneal Mast Cell Response

Mast cells (MCs) are engaged in the processes of host defense, primarily via the presence of receptors responsible for the detection of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Since BDs are exclusively host defense molecules, and MCs can elicit the antimicrobial response, this study is aimed...
