Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), also known as host defense peptides (HDPs), are important
effector immune defense molecules in multicellular organisms. AMPs exert their …

This review examines the role of reactive species RS (of oxygen ROS, nitrogen RNS and
halogen RHS) on innate immunity. The importance of these species in innate immunity was …

Interest in developing antibacterial polymers as synthetic mimics of host defense peptides
(HPDs) has accelerated in recent years to combat antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections …

Antimicrobial peptides are a type of small-molecule peptide that widely exist in nature and
are components of the innate immunity of almost all living things. They play an important role …

The increasing occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the dwindling antibiotic
research and development pipeline have created a pressing global health crisis. Here, we …

Antimicrobial peptides play a crucial role in innate immunity, whose components are mainly
peptide‐based molecules with antibacterial properties. Indeed, the exploration of the …

Biofilms are aggregates formed as a protective survival state by microorganisms to adapt to
the environment and can be resistant to antimicrobial agents and host immune responses …

Bacterial infections occur when wound healing fails to reach the final stage of healing, which
is usually hindered by the presence of different pathogens. Different topical antimicrobial …

Antibacterial compounds that reduce extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are needed
to avoid bacterial biofilms in water pipelines. Herein, green one-pot synthesis of α …

The abuse of antibiotics leads to the increase of bacterial resistance, which seriously
threatens human health. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find effective alternatives to …
