Abstract:
Defensins play a vital part in immunodefensity, with broad-spectrum of antimicrobial activities. Defensins can kill G(+), G(-) bacterial, fungal and some virus. At the same time, their cytotoxicity and cytolysis in tumor immunity are getting more and more attention. At present, studies on defensins in tumors especially in oral tumors increase. This paper summarizes defensins and tumor immunity and its relationship to oral tumors.
