How to use

In Vitro:

Expression of beta-defensin (pBD-1) mRNA increased from the proximal to the distal part of the intestine whereas pBD-2 expression decreased. The main gene expression sites for pBD-2 are kidney and liver, whereas pBD-1 is mainly expressed in tongue. An eight-fold increase in pBD-1 mRNA expression is observed upon S. typhimurium infection in the porcine intestinal cell line IPEC J2. Porcine beta-defensin 1 (pBD-1) also has immunomodulatory activity in porcine peripheral blood mononuclear cells and lymph node cells.

In Vivo:

Resistance against respiratory infection with B. pertussis in older piglets is associated with the presence of Porcine beta-defensin 1 (pBD-1) in the upper respiratory tract. Furthermore, treatment with pBD-1 conferred complete protection of newborn piglets from intrapulmonary infection with B. pertussis.
