“…During the last 30 years, the study of anuran skin secretion has been a topic of great interest due to its unique chemical properties and the associated biosynthetic pathways, which make it a powerful source of natural compounds with biological activities. − ,,,− The vast diversity of molecules found in anurans’ dermal glands can be classified into five main groups: (1) peptides and proteins, (2) alkaloids, (3) other biogenic amines, (4) steroid bufadienolides, and (5) volatile organic compounds. − ,,− ,,,− In recent years, our group has been working on the analysis of amphibian skins’ secretions using spectrometry for the study of toxins, volatile organic compounds, pigmentation, and AMPs’ diversity, − analyzing chemical diversity in terms of their ecological relevance. More specifically, we now have a more comprehensive understanding, suggesting that many defense substances can also be interpreted regarding host-symbiotic relationships .…”
