Abstract:
Les organismes vivants produisent des peptides antimicrobiens (PAMs) pour se protéger contre les microbes. La résistance croissante aux antibiotiques nécessite le développement de nouvelles stratégies thérapeutiques et les PAMs sont des candidats prometteurs pour résoudre ce problème. Ils possèdent une activité à large spectre et leur principal mécanisme d'action par perméation de la membrane engendre peu de phénomènes de résistance. Néanmoins, leur faible biodisponibilité empêche leur utilisation. Certaines limitations peuvent être surmontées en développant des mîmes de PAMs qui conservent le

Abstract:
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) are produced by plants, animals and bacteria to protect their host against antagonistic microbes. The antitheses of selective antibiotics, these peptides are drawn by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions to targets as diverse as the bacterial membrane, nucleic acids and serum proteins. This lack of specificity is their greatest strength, as mutations to single genes rarely lead to bacterial resistance. Resistance may be conferred by large scale alterations in cell envelope composition, which generally reduces bacterial fitness in the absence of

Abstract:
Antibiotics have been playing a major role in combating bacterial infections for centuries. Since the discovery of modern antibiotics, numerous derivatives have been designed and developed to treat different bacterial infections. Recently, antibiotic resistance has been continuously and increasingly reported. The lack of antibiotic alternatives makes these resistant bacteria become more difficult to eliminate. Antimicrobial peptides constitute a major part of the innate immune system of an organism. Their high activity and little resistance make them ideal candidates for novel antibiotic

Abstract:
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAPs) are an important component of the innate immune system and are instrumental in the elimination of bacteria, viruses, protozoa, yeast, fungi and cancerous cells from the body. CAPs are comprised of less than 100 amino acids and have a net positive charge due to a multitude of basic residues in their primary sequences. CAPs exert their antimicrobial activity primarily through the formation of pores in microbial membranes, but also play important immunostimulatory roles in the body. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are negatively charged, polydisperse linear polysa

Antimicrobial Peptides have strong interest as a novel class of antimicrobial agents in the phytosanitary field. This Thesis focuses on the development of strategies to produce of BP100 derivatives (BP100ders) in genetically modified (GM) rice plant biofactories. The production of certain BP100ders using a strong constitutive promoter was toxic to the host plant and, impairing its viability. That phytotoxicity to the host was directly linked to the haemolytic activity of BP100ders. Transgenic plants were obtained that produced these peptides with yields up to 0.5% total soluble protein and ret

Lightly cross-linked polyelectrolyte microgels are materials with interesting properties for a range of applications. For instance, the volume of these particles can be drastically changed in response to pH, ionic strength, temperature, or the concentration of specific ions and metabolites. In addition, microgel particles can bind substantial amounts of oppositely charged substances, such as proteins and peptides, and release them upon changes in the external environment. Consequently, microgels have potential in catalysis, photonics, biomaterials, and not at least, as protective and stimuli-s

Abstract:
Os peptídeos antimicrobianos desempenham papéis protetores críticos em uma gama de doenças humanas, incluindo o câncer. Vários estudos demonstraram funções - tais como proliferação, angiogênese, apoptose e imunomodulação - desses peptídeos em vias cancerígenas cruciais. Investigamos o papel do Peptídeo antimicrobiano LL-37 sobre stemness em câncer de mama (SKBR3) e células de melanoma (A375). Análise por PCR array da expressão diferencial de genes em SKBR3 e A375 com knockdown por siRNA para o mRNA de LL-37 revelou uma regulação negativa de genes relacionados com stemness, incluindo transcript

Abstract:
L’émergence de nouvelles souches bactériennes résistantes a signé la fin de l’« âge d’or » des antibiotiques. L’organisation mondiale de la santé a reconnu l’imminence des problèmes associés à ces nouvelles bactéries, qui engendrent de nouveau une mortalité en augmentation. Afin de palier à ce problème, de nouvelles alternatives aux antibiotiques sont envisagées par les chercheurs à travers le monde. La thérapie photodynamique antimicrobienne est l’une de ces alternatives. Elle a su se démarquer grâce à son incapacité à induire la résistance bactérienne. Alors que les résultats furent initiale

Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Plant defensin peptides have become promising and attractive candidates to be used as antifungal agents in agricultural biotechnology. These peptides have a broad spectrum antifungal activity and play a vital role in the innate immune system of plants. Plant diseases caused by fungi are a major contributor to the decrease in the quality and safety of agricultural products. Due to the dangerous effects and negative environmental impact of pesticides, an effective, safe, natural and durable method to control crop pathogens ha

Abstract:
Reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy was used as the primary analysis technique to study the interfacial chemistry of surfaces relevant to chemical and biological warfare agent defense. Many strategies utilized by the military to detect and decompose chemical and biological warfare agents involve their interaction with surfaces. However, much of the chemistry that occurs at the interface between the agents and surfaces of interest remains unknown. The surface chemistry plays an important role in efficacy of both detection and decontamination technology, and by obtaining a deeper underst

Tese de doutoramento em Engenharia Química e Biológica<br>In the past 60 years, antibiotics have been critical in the fight against infectious disease caused by microorganisms. The increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious public health problem. Much research has been dedicated to the development of new classes of antibiotics to overcome this situation. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are generally defined as peptides of less than 50 amino acid residues, bearing positive charge due to multiple lysine and arginine residues and with 50% or more of hydrophobic residues.

Abstract:
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAPs) offer a viable alternative to conventional antibiotics as they physically disrupt the bacterial membranes, leading to cell lysis and death. However, colonized bacteria often form “biofilms” – characterized by the overproduction of exopolysaccharides - that restrict the penetration of antibiotics; successful antimicrobial agents must evade this exopolysaccharide ‘matrix’ to reach the bacterial membrane. Since the Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm alginate traps CAPs by forming peptide-alginate complexes, the aim of this thesis is to better understand the mec
