摘要
抗菌肽是一种古老的生物活性分子,作为宿主防御系统的重要组成成分,其广谱抗菌活性和多方面免疫调节功能,日益引起医药界和生物学界的广泛关注并逐渐成为研究热点。人们有望利用其不引起有害炎症反应的特性,来激活并加强宿主的免疫反应。作者主要综述了目前抗菌肽在调节动物免疫方面的研究进展。
Antimicrobial peptides(AMPs), as ancient active molecules are integral and crucial components of host immune system. They trigger immune responses and help to control infection. These characteristics make AMPs become the hot research topics in the field of medical and biology and there is huge potential to utilize AMPs to activate or enhance innate responses without harmful inflammatory responses.
