Researchers reconstructed antimicrobial peptides from extinct mammalian ancestors and tested them against several disease causing bacteria. Some peptides from more recent ancestral lineages performed better in laboratory tests than corresponding modern human versions. The work is early stage, but it suggests that evolutionary history may help researchers identify useful starting points for future treatments against antibiotic resistant infections.
