Differential expression of human beta-defensin 2 in keratinized and non-keratinized oral epithelial lesions; immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization

Human beta-defensin(hBD)-2, an antimicrobial peptide, is produced by various epithelial cells. Because hBD-2 expression in the oral epithelium has not been assessed, we investigated its localization in normal oral epithelium and epithelial lesions. hBD-2 expression was studied using immunohistochemi...
