Description: KSL-W, a recently synthesized KSL analogue, was shown to display improved stability in simulated oral and gastric conditions with in vitro preserved antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, combined with sub-inhibitory concentrations of benzalkonium chloride, a known cationic surface-active agent, KSL was shown to significantly promote bacterial biofilm susceptibility. We also recently demonstrated that KSL-W had a selective effect on C. albicans growth, while exhibiting no toxic effect on epithelial cells. Peptide KSL-W enhances gingival fibroblast growth, migration, and metalloproteinase secretion, and the expression of α-smooth muscle actin, thus promoting wound healing.
