The secondary metabolites of seawater and freshwater blue-green algae are a rich natural product pool containing diverse compounds with various functions, including antiviral compounds; however, high-efficiency methods to screen such compounds are la...
In the era of the blue bio-economy, which promotes the sustainable utilization and exploitation of marine resources for economic growth and development, the fisheries and aquaculture industries still face huge sustainability issues. One of the major ...
Marine antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent a promising source for combating infections, especially against antibiotic-resistant pathogens and traditionally challenging infections. However, traditional drug discovery methods face challenges such a...
Marine algal extracts exhibit a potent inhibitory effect against several enveloped and non-enveloped viruses. The infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has several adverse effects, including an increased mortality ...
Fish head byproducts derived from surimi processing contribute about 15% of the total body weight, which are beneficial to health because they contain essential nutrients. In this study, olive flounder (OF) was the target species in order to maximize...
Chemical epigenetic cultivation of the sponge-derived fungus sp. SWMU-WZ04-1 contributed to the identification of twelve polyketide derivatives, including six new pestalotiopols E-J (-) and six known analogues (-). Their gross structures were deduce...
The marine peptide, American oyster defensin (AOD), is derived from and exhibits a potent bactericidal effect. However, recombinant preparation has not been achieved due to the high charge and hydrophobicity. Although the traditional fusion tags suc...
The study of bioactive molecules of marine origin has created an important bridge between biological knowledge and its applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. Current studies in different research fields, such as biomedicine, aim to discover m...
