Microbial Metabolite Inspired β-Peptide Polymers Displaying Potent and Selective Antifungal Activity

Donghui Zhang et al.

Summary: With the quick increase of serious invasive fungal infections and the limited antifungal drugs available, there is an urgent need for potent and selective antifungal agents. Inspired by microbial metabolites, the authors have designed and obtained poly(DL-diaminopropionic acid) (PDAP), a potent antifungal agent that kills fungal cells by penetrating the cytoplasm, generating reactive oxygen, and inducing fungal apoptosis. PDAP displays strong antifungal activity against Candida albicans, negligible hemolysis and cytotoxicity, and no susceptibility to antifungal resistance. In addition, PDAP effectively inhibits fungal biofilm formation and eradicates mature biofilms. In vivo studies have shown that PDAP is safe and effective in treating fungal keratitis, highlighting its potential as a promising new antifungal agent.

Superfast and Water-Insensitive Polymerization on α-Amino Acid N-Carboxyanhydrides to Prepare Polypeptides Using Tetraalkylammonium Carboxylate as the Initiator

Yueming Wu et al.

Summary: The tetraalkylammonium carboxylate-initiated NCA polymerization allows for superfast polymerization without the need for extra catalysts and can be operated in open vessels at ambient condition. This method can easily generate block copolymers with at least 15 blocks, avoid tedious purification steps, and enable direct polymerization in aqueous environments for the preparation of polypeptides and polypeptide nanoparticles. The advantages and mild conditions of this polymerization suggest great potential for functional exploration and application of polypeptides.

Preliminary Characterization of NP339, a Novel Polyarginine Peptide with Broad Antifungal Activity

Vanessa Duncan et al.

Summary: Fungi cause disease in nearly one billion individuals worldwide, and current antifungal agents face challenges such as emerging and drug-resistant fungi, toxicity, and drug-drug interactions. The development of NP339, a polyarginine peptide with potent antifungal activity against various pathogenic fungi, presents a promising solution to these challenges. NP339 targets fungal cell membranes specifically, demonstrating rapid fungicidal activity without inducing resistance, suggesting its potential as a differentiated antifungal candidate for serious fungal diseases.

Rationally Modified Antimicrobial Peptides from the N-Terminal Domain of Human RNase 3 Show Exceptional Serum Stability

Daniel Sandin et al.

Summary: Antimicrobial peptides have shown promising results in antibacterial activity, but are often vulnerable to protease degradation, reducing their therapeutic appeal. Replacing functional residues can increase peptide stability in human serum, reduce hemolytic effect, and preserve antimicrobial activity, leading to the design of new peptides with superior stability and lower toxicity which could be potential candidates for clinical development.
