Anthrax, von Bacillus anthracis verursacht, stellt eine große bioterroristische Bedrohung dar. Letaltoxin (LeTx), die Kombination des Letalfaktors (LF) und des protektiven Antigens (PA), ist für die besondere Pathogenese und hohe Letalität des Anthrax entscheidend. Ich konnte zeigen, daß die humanen a-Defensine starke Inhibitoren des LF sind. Humanes Neutrophilen Protein-1 (HNP-1) schützte Maus-Makrophagen vor der durch B. anthracis-Sporen induzierten Zytotoxizität. HNP-1 vermittelte Schutz durch Hemmung der Anthrax LeTx-Aktivität, indem es die LeTx verursachte Spaltung einer Mitogen aktivierten Proteinkinase (MAPK) Kinase (MKK) blockiert. Dies stellte den unterbrochenen MAPK Kinase Signaltransduktionsweg in LeTx behandelten Makrophagen wie...
