Peptide Class: Antimicrobial Peptide / Host Defense Peptide
OVERVIEW
LL-37 is a synthetic antimicrobial peptide derived from the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP). It consists of 37 amino acids and is naturally produced by immune cells as part of the body's innate immune defense.
In research settings, LL-37 is studied for its potential role in immune system regulation, antimicrobial activity, inflammation control, and tissue repair. Because of its broad biological activity, LL-37 has gained interest in studies involving skin health, wound healing, and microbial defense mechanisms.
LL-37 is commonly investigated for its ability to interact with bacterial membranes, immune signaling pathways, and inflammatory responses.
POTENTIAL RESEARCH BENEFITS
Antimicrobial Activity
Investigated for its ability to interact with and disrupt bacterial, viral, and fungal membranes.
Immune System Regulation
Studied for its influence on innate immune responses and immune cell signaling.
Wound Healing Research
Frequently examined in models related to tissue repair and skin regeneration.
Inflammation Modulation
May influence pathways involved in inflammatory response regulation.
Skin Health
Researched for potential roles in skin barrier protection and dermatological research.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
LL-37 functions as part of the body's innate immune defense system.
Research suggests it may:
Disrupt microbial cell membranes, leading to antimicrobial activity
Influence immune cell signaling pathways
Promote chemotaxis of immune cells
Support tissue repair and wound healing processes
These actions make LL-37 a focus in immunology and antimicrobial research.

STORAGE:
To maintain product stability and quality:
Store the lyophilized peptide at -20°C for long-term storage.
Short-term storage may be maintained at 2–8°C (refrigerated).
Keep the vial dry, sealed, and protected from light.
Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles, as this may reduce peptide stability.
Once reconstituted, solutions should be stored refrigerated and used within a short timeframe according to laboratory protocols.
For Research Use Only
Not intended for human consumption, medical, or veterinary use.
