Antimicrobial / Infection Peptide Research

The global rise of multidrug-resistant pathogens has accelerated research into antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as a critical and mechanistically distinct class of infection-fighting compounds with strong potential where conventional antibiotics are failing. Peptides such as LL-37 and related cathelicidins and defensins are studied for their broad-spectrum activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, viruses, and fungi through membrane-disrupting and immunomodulatory mechanisms that are fundamentally harder for pathogens to develop resistance against. Research has also explored the wound-healing and innate immune co-functions of AMPs in host defense. This section covers research on peptides and bioregulators with antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-infective research applications.
