摘要： Background: Fatigue is a pervasive health problem in the 21st century, affecting more than 20 % of the global population. While chronic fatigue, characterized by its complex etiology and resistance to rest, poses a significant challenge, exercise-induced fatigue is the most common form. The causes include depletion of energy reserves, accumulation of metabolic byproducts, oxidative stress from free radical effects, homeostasis imbalance, and so on. Scope and approach: The article provides a comprehensive review of plant-derived anti-fatigue peptides, focusing on their diverse sources, preparation methods, current evaluation strategies, and underlying mechanisms of action, with an aim to catalyze future research and unlock potential applications of anti-fatigue peptides. Key findings and conclusions: Compared to other bioactive compounds, anti-fatigue peptides are endowed with several advantages, such as ease of production, low toxicity, minimal allergenicity, efficient absorption, and high stability. These peptides alleviate fatigue by regulating energy metabolism, inhibiting oxidative stress, reducing metabolites in serum, managing the central nervous system, and enhancing immune function. Their efficacy is usually assessed through exhausting swimming and pole-climbing tests as well as in vitro antioxidant activity assays and biochemical indicator analysis based on animal models. Altogether, we emphasize their potential as promising candidates for functional foods or therapeutic agents targeting fatigue-related conditions.
