Regarding a potential role for human
-defensins in modulating host immune responses in
periodontal disease, we have very recently shown that only hBD-3, but not hBD-1 or hBD-2,
induces mRNA and protein expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in gingival fibroblasts
in dose- and time-dependent fashions (Figures 2 and 3, respectively).
