Fish antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small peptides whose actions have great implications in the innate immune response of teleost fish, being considered critical as the first line of defence against a wide spectrum of pathogens. Antibiotics have been widely used in aquaculture, resulting in ...
Antimicrobial peptides (endobiotic peptides), isolated from fish are described. Such endobiotic peptides may be isolated as 22 amino acid peptides having molecular weights of about 2500 Da from the gills of hybrid striped bass (). Antibodies that bind such peptides and methods of using such ...

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 molecules involved in host defense mechanisms. Environmental hazards and the greenhouse effect have led to increased...
Fish losses from infectious diseases are a significant problem in aquaculture worldwide. However, peptide antibiotics show potent activity against a broad range of pathogens including fish pathogens. Therefore, the ability of antimicrobial peptides to protect fish against infections caused by fish pathogen...
Fish reside in various environments; however, AMP research in fish have long been lagged behind. These highly diverse peptides in fish, regardless whether they are digested from proteins or not, constitute a sophisticate line for host defense. Exploring AMPs' detailed composition in fish will ...

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are one of the components of the non-specific immune system that operate first lines of protection in many animal species including fish. They exert broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, apart from many other potential roles in innate immunity, and represent a promising...
Below we will examine the various peptide families (whose members are shown in Table 1), and discuss their role in host defense and potential for future use. Table 1. Characterized antimicrobial peptides from fish, by species. Listed is the number of peptides of each family [reference]. ...
