Whereas lysozyme was identified in the 1920s, research on the smaller antimicrobial peptides started later. Pioneering work in, e.g., insects provided evidence for the central role that these so-called endogenous antibiotics playinhostdefenseagainstinfection.Thisisfurthersupportedbytheobservation that these peptides have been conserved throughout evolution and that they are present in vertebrates and invertebrates, plants, and microorganisms. Studies on antimicrobialpeptidesincysticfibrosisthatwereperformedinthe1990sprompted arangeofresearcheffortsthatwereaimedtodefinetheirroleindiseasedevelop- mentandprogression.Thisincreaseinresearchonantimicrobialpeptidesalsoled to the conclusion that they contribute to host defense against infection not only through a direct and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity but also through a variety of other mechanisms. This explains why the name host defense peptides isanappropriatealternativethatiswidelyused.Theaimofthisbookistoprovide an update on these effector molecules of the innate immune system both for researchers that are already actively involved in the area and for those with a generalinterestinthetopic. Thefirstthreechaptersofthisvolume provide anoverviewofthe evolution of cysteine-containing antimicrobial peptides (including defensins) and the role of these peptides in host defense in plants and microorganisms. The realization that antimicrobialpeptidesalsodisplayfunctionsdistinctfromtheirdirectantimicrobial actionisthefocusofthenextfivechaptersandputsthesepeptidescenterstagein immunityandwoundrepair.Theremarkableincreaseinstructure–functionstudies hasprovidednewinsightsintohowthepeptidesfulfilltheirvariousactivities.The next block of chapters discusses the role of antimicrobial peptides in disease, by providing an overview of mechanisms in bacterial resistance to antimicrobial peptidesandadiscussionoftheirroleininflammatoryboweldisease,cysticfibrosis lungdisease,andchronicobstructivepulmonarydisease.Althoughbacteriadonot develop resistance against antimicrobial peptides as easily as they do to conven- tional antibiotics, bacteria do use resistance mechanisms to defend themselves v vi Preface against antimicrobial peptide attacks by the host. Studies on these interactions provide insight into the host–microbe interaction during infection. Our insight in the role of antimicrobial peptides in disease has also improved considerably in recent years through studies that focus on, e.g., genetic and epigenetic regulation andstudiesthatexploretheactivityofthesepeptidesincomplexenvironmentsthat arechangingasaresultoftheunderlyingdisease.Thefinaltwochaptersdescribe howknowledgeofthefunctionofantimicrobialpeptidesandtheirregulationcanbe used to design new therapies for inflammatory and infectious disorders. This is a veryimportantareaofresearch,inparticularbecauseoftheincreaseinresistanceof microorganisms to conventional antibiotics. Therefore, the use of synthetic or recombinant peptides, oragentsthatstimulate the endogenous production ofanti- microbialpeptides,providesanattractivealternativeforconventionalantibiotics. Eachchapterinthisbookwaswrittenbyexpertsinthefieldofantimicrobial/host defense peptide research and provides a state-of-the-art summary of their area of research.Thetimeandexpertiseoftheseexpertswereessential,andwewouldlike tothankthemfortheirexcellentcontributions.
