ABSTRACT
Bioactive peptides are amino acids joined by the peptide sequence within a protein that positively affects the human body and human health. Most of the bioactive peptides are derived from plants and animals with the overall length of 2–20 amino acids. The source of bioactive peptide includes milk, cheese, pickle (fermented fruits and vegetables) plants, egg, fish, meat and soybean products(tofu). Bioactive peptide plays a defined role in maintaining the integrity of cells, tissues, organs, antimicrobial, antihypertensive, antioxidative, anti-thrombotic and immunoregulatory activities. The most crucial use of bioactive peptide is soft tissue and bone regeneration. The peptide such as Calcitonin gene-related, Parathyroid hormone, Osteogenic growth, Thrombin, RGD containing and cell binding play a significant role in bone healing. The production of bioactive peptides is common; however, we still need to overcome some obstacles related to the large production and longevity of bioactive peptides.
