Interleukin-26 (IL-26) is a novel anti-microbial peptide produced by T cells in response to staphylococcal enterotoxin by Woetmann, Anders, Alhede, Morten, Dabelsteen, Sally, Bjarnsholt, Thomas, Rybtke, Morten, Nastasi, Claudia, Krejsgaard, Thorbjørn, Andersen, Mads Hald, Bonefeld, Charlotte M., Geisler, Carsten, Givskov, Michael, Odum, Niels

“…Here we show that (i) skin T cells in chronic wounds infected with S. aureus express interleukin-26 (IL-26) in situ, (ii) staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) trigger IL-26 expression in T cell lines and primary skin T cells, and (iii) IL-26 triggers death and inhibits biofilm formation and growth of S. aureus. …”
