The in vitro activity of six cathelicidin peptides against 25 strains of Chlamydia was investigated. SMAP-29 proved to be the most active peptide, reducing the inclusion numbers of all 10 strains of Chlamydia trachomatis tested by >50% at 10 g/ml. This peptide was also active against C. pneumoniae and C. felis.

Abstract
The in vitro activity of six cathelicidin peptides against 25 strains of Chlamydia was investigated. SMAP-29 proved to be the most active peptide, reducing the inclusion numbers of all 10 strains of Chlamydia trachomatis tested by >50% at 10 g/ml. This peptide was also active against C. pneumoniae and C. felis.File in questo prodotto:
