Immunomodulatory Properties of Proteins and Peptides: Food Derivatives Approach

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Immunomodulators and Human Health

Abstract

Food represents a millennial source of multiple molecules with potential as health enhancers, not only from a nutritional point of view, and proteins are described as one of them. Proteins and their derived peptides could interact in a wide range of biological levels but claim attention as immunomodulating agents. The immunomodulatory system represents a key component to maintain human health, and peptides and protein from exogenous sources could intervene in different immune response stages. This chapter aims to analyze the food-derived proteins’ and peptides’ role in the immune response with an emphasis on their employment as health promoters, the involved mechanisms, and their potential incorporation in products.
