Discovery, bioactivity evaluation and rational design of natural-occurring peptides from Agalychnis annae and Rana tagoi okiensis
There are multiple biofunctional peptides in amphibians which assist in their survival in diverse environments. Many bioactive peptides from this source were found to have the potential to be developed into new drugs in the future. In this thesis, two peptides found in frogs and their analogues …

Liposome drug delivery systems for anticancer agents
… of liposome formulation of an amphiphilic anticancer peptide using the ANTS/DPX leakage assay. The effects of lipid composition on the liposomes' resistance to an amphiphilic cyclic peptide c[KS.S.S.KWL W] were studied by the ANTS/DPX leakage assay. One or more unsaturated acyl chains in …

Characterisation, bioactivity evaluation and rational modification of bioactive peptides from frog skin secretion and scorpion venom
This thesis examines a range of bioactive peptides from the East Asia frog- Pelophylax nigromaculatus, the Chinese bamboo leaf frog - Odorrana versabilis, and the scorpion Androctonus bicolor. In chapter 3 a novel Bowman-Birk type protease inhibitor (ranacyclin-NF) was identified in the skin …
