Paneth Cell α-Defensins from Rhesus Macaque Small Intestine

Antimicrobial peptides are secreted by small intestinal Paneth cells as components of innate immunity. To investigate the role of α-defensins in enteric host defenses in nonhuman primates, α-defensin cDNAs were isolated, α-defensin peptides were purified from rhesus macaque small bowel, and the bact...
