Antimicrobial peptides and proteins (AMPs) are among the most important components of
the immune system of multicellular organisms. The role of AMPs is of particular importance …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of invertebrates are characterized by a wide variety of
mechanisms of their action that involve not only disruption of the barrier function of a …

This review deals with antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that demonstrate antibacterial,
antiviral, and antifungal activity. It considers structure and mechanism of AMP interaction …

As our knowledge of the innate immune systems in multicellular organisms has grown
steadily in the last two decades, so has our comprehension of the basic role played by gene …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of phagocytes and epithelial cells are the key effector
molecules of the innate immune system, providing the anti-infective host defense. Besides …

Cationic antimicrobial peptides (AMP) of mammals (defensins, cathelicidins, protegrins and
many others) are regarded as important components of congenital immunity. AMP are …

This review is devoted to antimicrobial peptides (AMP's) that demonstrate activity against
bacteria, viruses and fungi. It considers structure and mechanism of AMP interaction with …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are usually made up of fewer than 100 amino acid residues.
They are found in many living organisms and are an important factor in those organisms' …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an important component of natural defence of most living
organisms against invading pathogens. AMPs are mostly cationic and amphipathic peptides …

For over fifty years, people have used antibiotics to treat illnesses caused by pathogens.
However, the excessive and inappropriate use of these antibiotics in clinical treatment of …
