Application of antimicrobial polypeptide host defenses to aquaculture: Exploitation of downregulation and upregulation responses

Antimicrobial polypeptides (AMPPs), consisting of peptides and small proteins with antimicrobial activity, are an integral component of innate immunity. Their often potent properties and widespread prevalence in fish suggests that designing means of manipulating their levels has considerable potenti...
