Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of lizards: a first comprehensive characterization of beta-defensins, ovo-defensins and cathelicidins from Podarcis lilfordi and closely related Lacertidae species [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Background Reptiles exhibit remarkable resistance to infections, making them a critical model for studying the molecular basis of innate immunity. Key components of their innate immune response are the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), small, rapidly ...

Small Island Effects on the Thermal Biology of the Endemic Mediterranean Lizard Podarcis gaigeae

Animals, 2023
Ectotherms are vastly affected by climatic conditions as they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature, and changes in their habitat thermal quality could seriously affect their overall biology.
