Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18058718 These data suggest that the disorder and order transition may be relevant for some biological functions of PIF/DCD.
17626247 Dermcidin is a proliferation and survival factor in prostate cancer cells subjected to stressors found in the prostate cancer microenvironment.
11694882 identified as antibiotic peptide secreted by sweat glands
15670776 Our results confirmed previous findings indicating that dermcidin-1L could have promising therapeutic potentials and shed new light on the structure-function relationship of dermcidin-1L.
16142329 NF-kappaB and STAT3 are activated by proteolysis inducing factor in human Kupffer cells and monocytes
16685272 Dermcidin may function as an oncogene in hepatic as well as breast cells; Glycosylation is not required, but the importance of asparagine residues suggests a role for the proteolysis-inducing factor core peptide domain.
15944307 Reduced expression of dermcidin in sweat of patients with atopic dermatitis may contribute to the high susceptibility of these patients to skin infections and altered skin colonization with Staphylococcus aureus.
16354654 Functional analysis indicated that proteolytic processing of DCD-1L by Cathepsin D in human sweat modulates the innate immune defense of human skin.
17448443 This work suggests that DCD might participate in the regulation of placental function by means of modulating the proteolytic cascades on the trophoblastic cell surface.
