Localization and expression of two human b-defensins (HBD-1 and HBD-2) in intestinal biopsies of celiac patients
Innate immunity is the first line of defense against microorganisms in vertebrates and acts by providing an initial barrier to microorganisms and triggering adaptive immune responses (Ganz and Lehrer 1999; Oppenheim et al., 2002).
