Anti-Microbial Peptide Database version 1 (AMPDB v1) is a meticulously curated resource that aims to address the limitations of existing databases in the field of antimicrobial research. We have utilized the latest technology and put our best efforts into adding all relevant tools to cater to the needs of our users. AMPDB v1 is a derived database, built upon information gathered from the available resources and boasts a significant size of 59,122 entries which are classified into 88 classes. All the information in this resource was curated manually. Sequence alignment and protein feature calculation tools were integrated into the database in the form of web applications, to make them easy to use, quick, and responsive in real-time. We have included multiple types of browsing and searching options to enhance the user experience, from simple text search to a completely customizable advanced search page with intuitive options that let the user combine multiple options together to make a powerful search query.

Background: Aerobic vaginitis (AV) is a state of abnormal vaginal microbiota, which is associated with increased numbers of aerobic, enteric bacteria and inflammation of the vaginal epithelium. Anti-microbial treatment combined with anti-inflammatory therapy could be useful in the treatment of this condition. It is known that calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, plays an important role in modulating the immune response in several inflammatory diseases.

The emergence and re-emergence of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) infectious diseases have once again posed a significant global health challenge, largely attributed to the development of bacterial resistance to conventional anti-microbial treatments. To mitigate the risk of drug resistance globally, both antibiotics and immunotherapy are essential. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), also referred to as host defense peptides (HDPs), present a promising therapeutic alternative for treating drug-resistant infections due to their various mechanisms of action, which encompass antimicrobial and immunomodulatory effects.

Sonodynamic therapy is an emerging therapeutic approach for combating bacterial infections. However, the characteristics of hypoxia, high HO microenvironment, and the formation of persistent biofilms in diabetic wound sites limit its efficacy in this field. To address these issues, we developed a multifunctional antibacterial hydrogel dressing PPCN@Pt-AMPs/HGel with the cross-linked gelatin and sodium alginate as the matrix, where the nanosonosensitizer PCN-224 was decorated with the oxygen-generating Pt nanoenzyme and further coupled with a biofilm-targeting antimicrobial peptide via an interacting polydopamine layer.
