The expression of the mRNA encoding galanin message-associated peptide (GMAP) in human keratinocytes is upregulated by lipopolysaccharides and exposure to Candida albicans. GMAP has growth-inhibiting activity against C. albicans and inhibits the budded-to-hyphal-form transition, establishing GMAP as a possible new component of the innate immune system.
人角质形成细胞中编码甘丙肽信息相关肽(GMAP)的mRNA表达,会因脂多糖和白色念珠菌暴露而上调。GMAP对白色念珠菌具有生长抑制活性,并抑制芽生形式向菌丝形式的转变,这表明GMAP可能是固有免疫系统的一个新组成部分。
