Defensin HNP-3 human is an alpha-defensin stored in the azurophilic granules of human neutrophils. Defensin HNP-3 human exerts broad-spectrum bactericidal, antifungal and antiviral activities mainly by forming bacterial membrane pores, and acts as a chemoattractant for monocytes and T cells. Defensin HNP-3 human maintains epithelial integrity to support periodontal tissue homeostasis, and exerts concentration-dependent effects on epithelial cell proliferation, adhesion and bacterial adhesion. Defensin HNP-3 human targets solid tumors and leukemia by inducing single-strand DNA breaks and membrane permeabilization in tumor cells via electrostatic binding and pore formation. Defensin HNP-3 human is abundant in human tongue squamous cell carcinoma and neutrophils infiltrating oral squamous cell carcinoma. Defensin HNP-3 human can be applied to research related to periodontitis and human tongue squamous cell carcinoma[1][2].
