immunomodulation
Immunomodulation refers to the regulation or alteration of immune system activity, encompassing both natural homeostatic processes and deliberate therapeutic interventions that adjust immune responses. In plant science, this field is significant because many medicinal plants produce bioactive compounds—such as polysaccharides, alkaloids, and flavonoids—that can modulate immune function in humans and animals, making the study of these plants central to drug discovery and natural medicine research. Understanding which plant-derived compounds influence immune pathways helps researchers develop new treatments for inflammatory, autoimmune, and infectious diseases.
