Endogenous cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) are among the most ancient and efficient components of host defence. It is somewhat of an enigma that bacteria have not developed highly effective CAMP-resistance mechanisms, such as those that inhibit many therapeutic antibiotics. Here, we propose that CAMPs and CAMP-resistance mechanisms have co-evolved, leading to a transient host-pathogen balance that has shaped the existing CAMP repertoire. Elucidating the underlying principles of this process could help in the development of more sustainable antibiotics.
内源性阳离子抗菌肽(CAMP)是宿主防御中最古老且高效的成分之一。细菌尚未发展出像抑制许多治疗性抗生素那样的高效抗CAMP机制,这多少有些令人费解。在此,我们提出CAMP与抗CAMP机制是共同进化的,导致了一种短暂的宿主-病原体平衡,这种平衡塑造了现有的CAMP库。阐明这一过程的潜在原理有助于开发更具可持续性的抗生素。
