title: [Effects of human defensin HNP-1 on the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha by human blood monocytes in vitro].
abstract: The influence of human defensin HNP-1 on the synthesis of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) by human blood monocytes was studied. It was shown that TNF-alpha production by human monocytes activated by SAC or PMA was augmented in the presence of HNP-1 concentrations of 10(-8)-10(-9) M. HNP-1 alone induced no synthesis of TNF-alpha. High concentration of HNP-1 (10(-4) M) was cytotoxic for human monocytes.
