Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major global health issue characterized by poor prognosis and complex tumor biology. One of the critical components of the HCC tumor microenvironment (TME) is tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which play a pivotal role in modulating tumor growth, immune evasion, and metastasis. Macrophages are divided into two major subtypes: pro-inflammatory M1 and anti-inflammatory M2, both of which may exist in TME with altered function and proportion.

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are becoming more and more common, which presents a serious threat to world health and could eventually render many of the antibiotics we currently use useless. The research and development of innovative antimicrobial tactics that can defeat these hardy infections are imperative in light of this predicament. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which have attracted a lot of attention due to their distinct modes of action and capacity to elude conventional resistance mechanisms, are among the most promising of these tactics.
