1.MECHANISM OF ACTION
Histatin-8 exerts its biological effects through multiple mechanisms: (1) Hemagglutination Inhibition – by competitively binding to viral or bacterial hemagglutinin proteins, blocking their interaction with host cell surface receptors (e.g., sialic acid residues), thereby preventing agglutination and cellular entry; (2) Antifungal Activity – disruption of fungal cell membrane integrity via electrostatic interactions and pore formation, leading to ion leakage and cell death; (3) Antimicrobial Action – targeting microbial membranes and interfering with intracellular processes, such as protein synthesis and enzyme activity; and (4) Immunomodulation – influencing inflammatory responses and immune cell recruitment. Its amphipathic structure and cationic nature enable broad-spectrum activity against pathogens.
