In Vivo Evaluation of ECP Peptide Analogues for the Treatment of <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> Infection

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are alternative therapeutics to traditional antibiotics against bacterial resistance. Our previous work identified an antimicrobial region at the N-terminus of the eosinophil cationic protein (ECP). Following structure-based analysis, a 30mer peptide (ECPep-L) was desig...
