When organs, especially external organs are injured, pathogens and excessive water loss
can threaten the wound healing process and cause local irreversible tissue damage. Here …

Anti-microbial peptides (AMPs), small biologically active molecules, produced by different
organisms through their innate immune system, have become a considerable subject of …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in insects have the potential to be developed as
chemotherapy agents against numerous microbial species. This article reviewed the existing …

The discovery that the lipids constituting the plasma membrane are not randomly distributed,
but instead are able to form laterally segregated lipid domains with different properties has …

Solitary wasps paralyze insects or spiders with stinging venom and feed the paralyzed preys
to their larva. Accordingly, the venoms should contain a variety of constituents acting on …

Venoms from Hymenoptera display a wide range of functions and biological roles. These
notably include manipulation of the host, capture of prey and defense against competitors …

Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and lethal malignant brain tumor. Because of
its complexity and heterogeneity, this tumor has become resistant to conventional therapies …

Solitary wasps use their stinging venoms for paralyzing insect or spider prey and feeding
them to their larvae. We have surveyed bioactive substances in solitary wasp venoms, and …

Recent advances in knowledge of the properties of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are
reviewed. AMPs are typically small, positively charged, amphipathic peptides that interact …

Cationic antimicrobial peptides are molecules with potential applications for treating
infections due to their antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties. The aim of this work …
