The regulated release of an antifungal peptide from a cell or group of cells. The synthesis or release of an antifungal peptide during an immune response, resulting in an increase in intracellular or extracellular levels. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of an antifungal peptide. Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a fungus that act to protect the cell or organism. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide production. The synthesis or release of any molecular mediator of the immune response following an immunological stimulus, resulting in an increase in its intracellular or extracellular levels. An immune response against microbes mediated through a body fluid. Examples of this process are seen in the antimicrobial humoral response of Drosophila melanogaster and Mus musculus. The synthesis or release of an antimicrobial peptide during an immune response, resulting in an increase in intracellular or extracellular levels. Such peptides may have protective properties against bacteria, fungi, viruses, or protozoa. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide production. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide production. An immune response against a fungus mediated through a body fluid. An example of this process is the antifungal humoral response in Drosophila melanogaster.
