Dermcidin Products

Dermcidin is a protein that has three isoforms, with lengths of 110, 121, and 77 amino acids and weights of approximately 11, 12, and 8 kDa respectively. Dermcidin limits the skin infection of pathogens after a bacterial infection due to its antimicrobial activity as well as functions to aid in phosphatase activity and the survival of neurons. Current studies are being done on several diseases and disorders linked to this protein including clear cell hidradenoma, root caries, angiomyoma, skin conditions, myocardial infarction, hidrocystoma, atopic dermatitis, squamous cell carcinoma, vaginitis, breast cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer. Dermcidin has also been shown to have interactions with FAM107A, INPP5K, MDM2, TNFRSF14, and SUMO2.
