Overview

This review discusses surfactin's immunomodulatory effects in inflammatory disorders, suggesting potential therapeutic applications.

Key Points

  • The aim is to explore surfactin's immunomodulatory properties and its implications for therapeutic applications.
  • Review of literature on surfactin's immunological mechanisms and safety considerations.
  • Analysis of dose-dependent effects and safety profiles of surfactin.
  • Examination of recent advances in microbial engineering for biosynthesis.
  • Surfactin modulates key inflammatory signaling pathways such as NF-κB and MAPKs.
  • Demonstrates protective effects in various models of inflammatory and immune-mediated disorders.
  • Safe at moderate doses, but toxicity risks exist at higher concentrations.
