Vaccine, 27(14), 2055-2064 (2009-05-12)
The need to enhance the immunogenicity of purified subunit antigens and modulate resulting immune responses has prompted the development of new adjuvants. Here, the ability of CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN), a bovine host defence peptide indolicidin, and polyphosphazene to synergistically combine

Six different cathelicidin-derived peptides were compared to tobramycin for antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects against S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, and S. maltophilia strains isolated from cystic fibrosis patients. Overall, SMAP-29, BMAP-28, and BMAP-27 showed relevant antibacterial activity (MIC(50) 4-8μg/ml), and in

Indolicidin (IN) is a 13-residue Trp-rich antimicrobial peptide isolated from bovine neutrophils. To develop novel IN-derived antimicrobial peptides with enhanced cell specificity (therapeutic index) and potent anti-inflammatory activity, several IN analogs were synthesized by Pro-->Lys substitution. All IN analogs displayed

A series of Trp and Arg analogs of antibacterial indolicidin (Ind) was synthesized and the antimicrobial and hemolytic activities were investigated. [L(9)]Ind, [L(11)]Ind, [K(8),L(9)]Ind and [K(6, 8),L(9)]Ind showed desirable characteristics, exhibiting negligible hemolytic activity while keeping strong antibacterial activity. The

Indolicidin, a 13-residue cationic peptide with extremely high tryptophan content, exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial as well as hemolytic activity. To gain insight into the mechanism of indolicidin action on membrane permeability, liposome leakage induced by this peptide was studied by using
