Using anti-biofilm peptides to treat antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
Host defense (antimicrobial) peptides (HDPs) are produced by virtually all organisms and have an important role in protection against microbial infections. Some naturally occurring peptides such as the human cathelicidin LL-37 and the bovine peptide indolicidin have been shown to inhibit bacterial biofilm development. Rearrangement and substantial modification of the amino acid sequence of thes...

متن کاملOptimising Antibiotic Usage to Treat Bacterial Infections
The increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria poses a threat to the continued use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics has been identified as a significant driver in the emergence of resistance. Finding optimal treatment regimens is therefore critical in ensuring the prolonged effectiveness of these antibiotics. This study uses mathematical modelli...
متن کاملTreatment of bacterial infections
Editorial Treatment of bacterial infections This issue of the journal has again a theme-that of diagnosis and treatment of infection in its various guises. It is not that long since a simple cut or abrasion could result in overwhelming septicaemia and death due to lack of suitable treatment by antibiotics – which today we all take for granted. Hedley-Whyte and Milamed nicely illustrate the prog...
