Cationic host defence peptides (CHDP), also known as antimicrobial peptides, are naturally
occurring peptides that can combat infections through their direct microbicidal properties …

The antibiotic crisis has led to a pressing need for alternatives such as antimicrobial
peptides (AMPs). Recent work has shown that these molecules have great potential not only …

Current research has demonstrated that small cationic amphipathic peptides have strong
potential not only as antimicrobials, but also as antibiofilm agents, immune modulators, and …

Host defence peptides (HDPs) are short, cationic amphipathic peptides with diverse
sequences that are produced by various cells and tissues in all complex life forms. HDPs …

Bacterial biofilms demonstrate high broad-spectrum adaptive antibiotic resistance and
cause two thirds of all infections, but there is a lack of approved antibiofilm agents. Unlike …

Biofilms are multicellular communities of bacteria that can adhere to virtually any surface.
Bacterial biofilms are clinically relevant, as they are responsible for up to two-thirds of …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), especially antibacterial peptides, have been widely
investigated as potential alternatives to antibiotic-based therapies. Indeed, naturally …

Biofilm-associated infections represent one of the major threats of modern medicine. Biofilm-
forming bacteria are encased in a complex mixture of extracellular polymeric substances …

The “golden era” of antibiotic discovery has long passed, but the need for new antibiotics
has never been greater due to the emerging threat of antibiotic resistance. This urgency to …

Cancer is a multifaceted global health issue and one of the leading causes of death
