ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a peptide comprising amino acids according to Formula (I): ((X)l(Y)m)nwherein l, m and n are integers from 0 to 10; X and Y, which may be the same or different, are an amino acid selected from the group consisting of hydrophobic amino acids and/or cationic amino acids, for use as a medicaments.
