Antibacterial peptides - key players in host defense at epithelial surfaces
… with proinflammatory cytokines induced a high antibacterial activity against GAS, both in the incubation medium and retained on the cell surface. Knockdown of CXCL9/MIG-production resulted in a decreased antibacterial activity. The soluble antibacterial activity was dependent on IFN-γ and …

The discovery and functional study of a bioactive peptide QUB-1418 from the defensive skin secretion of the Wuyi torrent frog (Amolops wuyiensis)
… resistance (AMR), scientists have been studying antibacterial peptides (AMPs), which have great potential to be a substitute for antibiotics. <br/><br/>In this study, the cDNA sequence encoding a bioactive peptide named QUB-1418, and it has been identified in the skin secretions of Amolops …

Identification and bio-evaluation of an antimicrobial peptide from the skin secretion of Phyllomedusa tarsius
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), as a large classification of biologically active peptides, showed a broad-spectrum efficacy against various microorganisms. Although the antibacterial activity of these peptides already has been proven, studies have shown that antibacterial peptides can also play …

QUB-2791: Identification of novel bioactive peptide from the Agalychnis annae skin secretions
… Compared with other small molecule drugs, Antibacterial peptides (AMPs) found in the secretions of amphibians have broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. In addition, AMP and antibiotics have different killing mechanisms, therefore, AMP may be promising for solving the antibiotic …

Antimicrobial activity of human seminal plasma and seminal plasma proteins
… the spermatozoa are released. We found that the peptides formed when the semenogelins are degraded were responsible for the major bactericidal activity of seminal plasma. The activity of these peptides was strictly zinc-dependent. We also found potent antifungal activity in seminal unleashed by …
