Abstract
- Highlights: [•] Fowlicidin-1(6-26) is chemotactic to neutrophils without enhancing their oxidative burst activity. [•] Fowl-1(6-26) activates macrophages by inducing chemokine/cytokine expression. [•] Fowl-1(6-26) activates macrophages also by enhancing the surface expression of MHC II and CD86. [•] Fowl-1(6-26) protects mice if given 1–4 days prior to MRSA infection. [•] Fowl-1(6-26) augments ovalbumin-specific adaptive immune response. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
