Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cells, scaffolds and regulatory factors are the three key elements for tissue engineering. LL37 possesses broad-ranged bactericidal effects and angiogenesis ability, indicating LL37 is a candidate for a regulatory factor. However, LL37 is known to exhibit cytotoxic properties for host cells. Therefore, the development of LL37-complexes, by which the cytotoxicity for host cells is eliminated without antimicrobial abilities diminished, is essential for future clinical application. We demonstrated that LL37 (10 microM) premixed with heparin (2-8 microg/ml), one of glycosaminoglycans, did not show any cytotoxic effects but retained bactericidal effects. In addition, heparin-LL37 complex had cell-functioning ability. These findings suggest that the heparin-LL37 complex is a promising regulatory factor for regenerative therapy.
