From clearing infection to rebuilding skin

Wound healing is where LL-37 has been taken furthest in people: three randomized placebo-controlled topical trials, more than any other use. It is also where the gap between the mechanism story and the measured result is widest, and this unit is built around that gap rather than around it.

You will meet the animal work as what it actually is, a set of formulation experiments in which a carrier outperformed bare peptide, then the three human trials in the detail their own papers use, including the statistical choices that make the largest one read cleaner than it was. It is the peptide most hopeful application, and the best test of honest reading in this course.
