Promising role of defensins peptides as therapeutics to combat against viral infection
"Bio-computational designed Brilacidin is a synthetic non-peptide defensin mimic drug that destabilises the viral membrane by its amphipathic & hydrophobic nature, and its immunomodulatory property influence the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α cytokines, and cAMP& PDE4/PDE3 pathways which are associated with bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects of COVID-19 disease. The smaller size, more effective antimicrobial activity, bioavailability, low enzymatic degradation and toxicity, natural and low-cost production make the Brilacidin a most potent drug against SARS-CoV-2 than the known antiviral drugs."
