Abstract:
Secretion of the salivary glands of leeches contains more than 100 bioactive substances,in recent years it has become the focus of many researchers'attention, which was the most extensive and in-depth study of the salivary glands of leeches anticoagulant and inhibit the biological activity of platelet aggregation substance, and some species have been successfully applied to the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.in addition, a growing number of studies have found that leech salivary gland secretion also has antibacterial, antitumor, analgesic, vasodilator, anti-inflammatory, wound healing and other biological functions.Thus, leech salivary gland secretion with functions of biological diversity.Moreover, the leech is not just for the treatment of human diseases, but also applied to the treatment of several diseases of animals.This review expatiating the functional diversity of leech salivary secretions by consulting a large number of iterature , that the use of leech salivary gland secretion and other blood-sucking animal salivary gland secretions functions provide a useful reference.
