Insect antimicrobial peptides: potential tools for the prevention of skin cancer. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2016; 100: 7397-7405. doi: 10.1007/s00253-016-7718-y PMID: 27418360M. Tonk, A. Vilcinskas, M. Rahnamaeian, Insect antimicrobial peptides: potential tools for the prevention of skin ...
The antibiotic resistance crisis has prompted research into alternative candidates such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). However, the demand for such molecules can only be met by continuous production processes, which achieve high product yields and offer compatibility with the Quality-by-Design initiat...
A major roadblock towards the realisation of a circular economy are the lack of high-value products that can be generated from waste. Black soldier flies (BSF; Hermetia illucens) are gaining traction for their ability to rapidly consume large quantities
With regard to monetary constraints, a higher price for insect products could be justified, if there were certain health benefits associated with bioactive compounds, such as antimicrobial peptides, medium-chain fatty acids, and chitin in its derivate forms (Borrelli et al., 2021). Another key ...
One gene both significantly upregulated in parasitised ASW and with significant DEU for four exons is TRINITY_DN3215_c1_g1, annotated as the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) defensin (Table1, Supplementary Table 3). Defensins are a group of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) produced in response to in...
It has been recently reported that consumption of certain insects can prevent or treat human diseases. This review goes beyond entomophagy to entomotherapy and their application to the food industry. 展开 关键词: Entomophagy Entomotherapy Sustainable Low-carbon diet ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES ANTIBACTERIAL...
Living organisms in Thailand are very diverse due to the unique geographical location of Thailand. The diversity of Thai bioresources has proven to be a rich source of biologically active compounds. The present review covers bioactive substances from Tha
Infection of insects begins with attachment of fungal spores to the cuticles of target hosts, and in response to surface cues the fungus germinates; the emerging germ tubes produce a variety of enzymes that combined with mechanical pressure begins the process of cuticle penetration (5, 6, 7, ...
often commonly infested with a wide variety of microorganisms. Such environment may induce the target insects to produce many native bioactive peptides with anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-viral functions29,30. Insects have been reported to contain biologically active antimicrobial peptides, which...
insects represent the largest class of organisms in the animal kingdom. The humoral immune response includes the production of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that are released into the insect hemolymph after microbial infection. In this review, we have focused on insect immune responses, particularly ...
