Abstract

Lucía Maura

Immunomodulatory peptides have garnered significant attention in recent years for their dual role as vaccine adjuvants and antimicrobial agents. This article explores the potential of these peptides in enhancing vaccine efficacy and combating microbial infections. We delve into their mechanisms of action, applications in vaccine development and their effectiveness against various pathogens. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges and future prospects of immunomodulatory peptides in the field of immunotherapy and infectious disease management.
