Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found widely distributed through Nature, and participate
in the innate host defense of each species. Fish are a great source of these peptides, as they …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are generally considered as an essential component of
innate immunity, thereby providing the first line of defense against wide range of pathogens …

For most marine aquaculture species, one of the main bottlenecks is the stable production of
high quality juveniles. The high and unpredictable mortality in the first weeks after hatching …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have been identified throughout the metazoa suggesting their
evolutionarily conserved nature and their presence in teleosts is no exception. AMPs are …

Piscidins are histidine-enriched antimicrobial peptides that interact with lipid bilayers as
amphipathic α-helices. Their activity at acidic and basic pH in vivo makes them promising …

The amphibious teleost Giant mudskipper (Periophthalmodon schlosseri, Pallas 1770)
inhabit muddy plains and Asian mangrove forests. It spends more than 90% of its life outside …

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

Antimicrobial peptides (AMP s) are the key components of the innate immune system and
perform the various biological function which offers immunocompetence and homeostasis to …

Most individual fish in farmed and wild populations are infected with parasites. Upon
dissection of fish, helminths from gut are often easily visible. Enteric helminths include …

Antimicrobial polypeptides (AMPPs), consisting of peptides and small proteins with
antimicrobial activity, are an integral component of innate immunity. Their often potent …
