Ultrashort antibacterial and antifungal lipopeptides [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006 Host-defense cationic antimicrobial peptides (≈12–50 aa long) play an essential protective role in the innate immune system of all organisms. Lipopeptides, however, are produced only in bacteria and fungi during cultivation, and they are composed of specific lipophilic moieties attached to anionic peptides (six to seven amino acids)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Antibiotic resistance has become one of the world’s most severe problems because of the overuse of antibiotics. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are more difficult to kill and more expensive to treat. Researchers have been studied on antibiotic alternatives

Viruses, 2020 The highly conserved extracellular domain of the transmembrane protein M2 (M2e) of the influenza A virus is a promising target for the development of broad-spectrum vaccines. However, M2e is a poor immunogen by itself and must be linked to an appropriate

Genotoxicity of cationic lipopeptide nanoparticles
Toxicology Letters, 2020 The genotoxicity of cationic lipopeptide nanoparticles (cLPNPs) was evaluated in vivo and in vitro comet assay and the in vivo chromosome aberrations test. In vitro comet assay, human blood cells were exposed to cLPNPs at the concentration of 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 100 μg/mL.

ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF LIPOPEPTIDES [PDF]
Postępy Mikrobiologii - Advancements of Microbiology, 2018 Abstract The constantly growing number of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains prompts the search for alternative treatments. Synthetic peptides based on natural antimicrobial peptides, also known as antimicrobial lipopeptides, can become a promising group of “drugs” to fight multi-resistant bacteria.

The peptide sequence of diacyl lipopeptides determines dendritic cell TLR2-mediated NK activation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocyte effectors that are activated to control certain microbial infections and tumors. Many NK-activating and regulating receptors are involved in regulating NK cell function.
