How This Works

LL-37 exerts both direct and indirect antimicrobial effects. Its amphipathic, cationic α-helical structure (net +6 charge) allows it to preferentially bind and disrupt negatively charged microbial membranes[2]. Beyond direct killing, LL-37 modulates host immunity: in murine sepsis models, it induced neutrophils to release microvesicles rich in antimicrobial proteins, lowering bacterial burden and improving survival[3]. LL-37 can also bind bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and block its interaction with CD14/TLR4, reducing endotoxin-triggered TNF release and neutrophil apoptosis[2]. These combined mechanisms help explain its potential in infection control and tissue-repair contexts.

CoreVials Standard Mix

For a 5mg vial Add 1 mL (100 units) BAC Water
Final concentration 5 mg/mL

After mixing (U-100 syringe reference)

  • 5 units=250 mcg
  • 10 units=500 mcg
  • 20 units=1000 mcg

These are example measurement calculations only. They are not dosing, administration, medical, or veterinary guidance.

Other Mix Options
BAC Added Final Concentration Dose per 10 units
1 mL (100 units) CoreVials Standard Mix 5 mg/mL 500 mcg
2 mL (200 units) 2.5 mg/mL 250 mcg
2.5 mL (250 units) 2 mg/mL 100 mcg
