抗菌肽的免疫调节活性及其在动物生产中的应用

摘要

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are non-specific immunological response products produced by immune systems to defense against invading pathogens.AMPs have wide antimicrobial spectrum and typically cationic ,low molecu-lar weight,heat stable, and are hard to develop drug-residue and drug resistance.This article summarized recent research progresses on the immunoregulatory activity of AMPs and their potential application in animal nutrition.%抗菌肽是生物体的免疫防御系统在受到外界病原体侵染时产生的一类生物非特异性免疫应答产物，具有阳离子性、分子量小、抗菌谱广、热稳定性好，且不易形成耐药性和药物残留等特点。本文主要对抗菌肽的免疫调节活性及其在动物生产中的应用研究进展进行了综述。
