2006 journal article
Evidence for widespread distribution of piscidin antimicrobial peptides in teleost fish
DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS, 72(3), 241–252.
author keywords: piscidins; mast cells; rodlet cells; innate immunity; pisces
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / biosynthesis; Anti-Bacterial Agents / isolation & purification; Anti-Bacterial Agents / metabolism; Antibodies / metabolism; Female; Fishes / classification; Fishes / immunology; Fishes / physiology; Immunohistochemistry / veterinary; Male; Peptides / chemistry; Peptides / isolation & purification; Peptides / metabolism; Perciformes / classification; Perciformes / immunology; Perciformes / physiology; Phylogeny; Tissue Distribution
TL;DR:
Piscidin-immunoreactive cells were most common at sites of pathogen entry, including the skin, gill and gastrointestinal tract, which strongly suggest that piscidins are a widespread and important component of many fishes' defense against disease.

author keywords: antimicrobial peptides; channel catfish virus; herpesvirus; frog virus 3; iridovirus; ectothermic organisms; amphibian decline; temporin; dermaseptin; magainin; piscidins; ranatuerin
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Amphibian Proteins / chemistry; Amphibian Proteins / pharmacology; Animals; Antimicrobial Cationic Peptides / chemistry; Antimicrobial Cationic Peptides / pharmacology; Antiviral Agents / chemistry; Antiviral Agents / pharmacology; Bass; Cells, Cultured; Drug Synergism; Herpesviridae / drug effects; Herpesviridae / pathogenicity; Ictaluridae / virology; Molecular Sequence Data; Rana catesbeiana; Rana pipiens; Ranavirus / drug effects; Ranavirus / pathogenicity; Skin / chemistry; Virus Inactivation
TL;DR:
Results extend the previous findings and strongly suggest that various amphibian and piscine AMPs may play important roles in protecting fish and amphibians from pathogenic viruses.

2002 journal article
Host site of activity and cytological effects of histone-like proteins on the parasitic dinoflagellate Amyloodinium ocellatum
DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS, 52(3), 207–215.
author keywords: histone-like proteins; innate immunity; fish
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / isolation & purification; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Aquaculture; Bass / immunology; Bass / parasitology; Dinoflagellida / drug effects; Epidermis / chemistry; Epidermis / immunology; Female; Fish Diseases / immunology; Fish Diseases / parasitology; Histones / isolation & purification; Histones / pharmacology; Host-Parasite Interactions; Male; Mucus / chemistry; Mucus / immunology; Oncorhynchus mykiss / immunology; Oncorhynchus mykiss / parasitology; Skin / immunology
TL;DR:
Data suggest that normal, nonimmune fish skin contains potent defenses against protozoan ectoparasites and that the effects of these defenses may extend beyond their transient interactions with the parasites, which has important implications for this host-parasite relationship.

Antimicrobials - Peptide antibiotics in mast cells of fish
NATURE, 414(6861), 268–269.
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / immunology; Anti-Bacterial Agents / isolation & purification; Bass / immunology; Mast Cells / immunology; Peptides
TL;DR:
It is shown that 'piscidins', a previously undiscovered family of peptide antibiotics isolated from fish, reside in mast cells, an immune cell of uncertain function that is present in all vertebrate classes.
