Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found in nearly all living organisms, show broad spectrum
antibacterial activity, and can modulate the immune system. Furthermore, they have a very …

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a biofilm-forming recalcitrant pathogen
with a multidrug-resistant profile, poses a pandemic threat to human health and is the …

Stationary phase Staphylococcus aureus, especially methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA),
has been widely associated with many persistent infections as well as biofilm-associated …

Designing short antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are active against drug‐resistant
bacteria, is a promising way to find new therapeutic agents. In this research, a novel short …

The repotentiation of the existing antibiotics by exploiting the combinatorial potential of
antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with them is a promising approach to address the challenges …

Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive bacterium that can cause diverse skin and soft
tissue infections. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can cause more …

In an attempt to develop potent and non-toxic antimicrobial agent, the palmitoylated
analogue of α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (11–13), Pal-α-MSH (11–13) was …

Aim: In order to search for novel antibacterial therapeutics against Gram-negative bacteria,
the antibacterial efficacies and mechanism of action of tryptophan-and arginine-rich α …

Background: Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) are an attractive alternative to traditional small
molecule antibiotics as AMPs typically target the bacterial cell membrane. A Trp-rich peptide …

Reptiles can evolve adaptive colors in different environments, but relatively little is known
about the genetic mechanisms. Here, we identified the MC1R gene and its association with …
