Resolution of Bacterial Pneumonia Intensity during Progression and Increased Anionic Peptide Distribution and

-defensins) of humans and ruminants is increased in response to acute infection, APexpression is not increased during acute infection, which suggests that the expression of the latter peptide isconstitutive. In this study, the degree of AP expression during the progression (acute, subacute, and chronic)of bronchopneumonia was determined.
