Article Synopsis
- Gonorrhea is increasingly becoming a global health concern due to antibiotic resistance, prompting the need for new treatment options.
- This study investigates antimicrobial peptides (AMP) derived from fish, specifically flatfish and striped bass, for their effectiveness against gonorrhea-causing bacteria (GC).
- Results indicate that certain AMP, like Pardaxin-based (PB2) and Piscidin-based (PIS and TP4), can significantly inhibit GC growth and biofilm formation, suggesting their potential as new antibiotic alternatives.
