LL-37 Research for Skin Infections
An evidence-based overview of research examining LL-37 in the context of skin infections. This page synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed literature.

Cathelicidin expression in human skin and wound tissue supports a local host-defense role. The topical diabetic-foot-ulcer trial reported a wound granulation signal without a significant reduction in measured aerobic bacterial colonization; it does not establish treatment of other skin infections.
