Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are distributed across all kingdoms of life and are an
indispensable component of host defenses. They consist of predominantly short cationic …

Fish epidermal mucus contains innate immune components, secreted by globlet cells that
provide the primary defence against different pathogenic microbes and act as a barrier …

The vertebrate immune system is comprised of numerous distinct and interdependent
components. Every component has its own inherent protective value, and the final …

Fish is considered to be an important model in comparative immunology studies because it

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 …

Fishes are rich sources of structurally diverse bioactive compounds. In recent years, much
attention has been paid to the existence of peptides with biological activities and proteins …

Fish antimicrobial peptides (AMP s) are small peptides whose actions have great
implications in the innate immune response of teleost fish, being considered critical as the …

All eukaryotic organisms, single-celled or multi-cellular, produce a diverse array of natural
anti-infective agents that, in addition to conventional antimicrobial peptides, also include …

Fish are a major component of the aquatic fauna. Like other organisms, fish secrete different
kinds of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are positively charged short amino-acid-chain …

Marine protein hydrolysates and peptides have grown in popularity due to their biological
