EFFECTS OF PROLINE-RICH PEPTIDES OF THE INNATE IMMUNE SYSTEM ON DRUG-RESISTANT BACTERIAL STRAINS by M. S. Zharkova, P. M. Kopeykin, G. E. Afinogenov, D. S. Orlov, A. Yu. Artamonov, K. E. Safiullina, M. S. Sukhareva, E. V. Tsvetkova, B. L. Milman, A. G. Afinogenova, O. V. Shamova

“…Lack of hemolytic activity towards human red blood cells is an important benefit of the studied peptides when used at concentrations several times higher than those showing antimicrobial effects. The data obtained presume certain prospects for further investigations of proline-rich peptides, as well as their structural modifications, for the development of new combined drugs based on these compounds, in order to combat antibiotic-resistant microorganisms, e.g., medications for local applications, various components of medical devices, in particular, venous catheters, stents and wound dressings.…”
