Abstract

Many natural products from marine sources are endowed with promising immunomodulating activities, thus representing invaluable leads in the drug discovery. The aim of this review is to highlight the work on natural immunomodulators from marine origin with around 35 naturally available marine sources have been explained. This review also discusses various chemical constituents responsible for immunomodulatory action along with their mechanism involved in immunomodulation. This work stimulates the researchers for further work on the marine immunomodulators.
