Antimicrobial and Anticancer Potential of Peptides Derived from Ambystoma mexicanum Skin Mucus
The recent study investigated the skin mucus of the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) to identify natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with potential medical uses. Through computational screening, researchers pinpointed over twenty candidates, which were then synthesized and tested in the lab. The results were highly positive that four peptides effectively killed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a major… Read More
