Host defence peptides in liver tissue of human donor and multiple traumatised mice. a and b Immunohistochemistry reveals expression of HBD-2 in healthy human liver tissue. Negative control studies were carried out by absorption of the primary antibody by recombinant protein (1:500 dilution). c and d MBD-4 was stained in liver tissue samples of day 1 after multiple trauma. Compared to control, posttraumatic liver samples of mice show high immunoreactivity for MBD-4
