Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have a great potential to face the global expansion of
antimicrobial resistance (AMR) associated to the development of multidrug-resistant (MDR) …

Wild fisheries are declining due to over-fishing, climate change, pollution and marine habitat
destructions among other factors, and, concomitantly, aquaculture is increasing significantly …

The current practice of fish processing generates increasing quantities of side streams and
waste, such as skin, heads, frames, viscera, and fillet cut offs. These may account for up to …

The current treatments applied in aquaculture to limit disease dissemination are mostly
based on the use of antibiotics, either as prophylactic or therapeutic agents, with vaccines …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered alternatives to classical antibiotics and may
become an excellent candidate for tackling antimicrobial resistance in aquaculture …

CRISPR/Cas9-based gene knockout in animal cells, particularly in teleosts, has proven to
be very efficient with regards to mutation rates, but the precise insertion of exogenous DNA …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are short molecules produced by almost all organisms. Fish
AMPs contain innate immune components as their primary immune molecules. The fish …

The slow discovery of new antibiotics combined with the alarming emergence of antibiotic-
resistant bacteria underscores the need for alternative treatments. In this regard, fish skin …

Defensins are one the largest group of antimicrobial peptides and are part of the innate
defence. Defensins are produced by animals, plants and fungi. In animals and plants …

The biggest obstacles in the application of marine peptides are two-fold, as in the case of
non-marine plant and animal-derived bioactive peptides: elucidating correlation between …
