Dermcidin-1L (human)
The protein dermcidin expressed in sweat glands is secreted into the sweat and transported to the epidermal surface. The concomitant processing of the protein yields a broad-spectrum antimicrobial 47 amino acid peptide, dermcidin-1 (DCD-1). Dermcidin and naturally occurring DCD-1L fragments do not interfere with membrane permeability and bind to different surface molecules. DCD-1L stimulates keratinocytes to produce cytokines and chemokines such as TNF-α, IL-8, CXCL10 and CCL20.
