Peptides Isolated from Amphibian Skin Secretions with Emphasis on Antimicrobial Peptides
The skin of amphibians is a tissue with biological functions, such as defense, respiration, and excretion. In recent years, researchers have discovered a large number of peptides in the skin secretions of amphibians, including antimicrobial peptides, antioxidant peptides, bradykinins, insulin-releas...
