Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on the potential of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from a traditional medicinal herb used in Indian medicine as new anticancer agents, in light of ongoing cancer treatment challenges.
  • - Researchers identified 86 peptide traces using advanced liquid-chromatography-electrospray-ionisation mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS), ultimately sequencing three peptides, with SA923 showing the strongest anticancer properties.
  • - SA923 is characterized as a cyclic peptide without traditional disulfide bonds and demonstrated significant in vitro anti-proliferative activity, showcasing potential through toxicity assessments in zebrafish embryos.
