Lactoferrin—a multifunctional protein with antimicrobial properties
Molecular Immunology, 2003 Lactoferrin is a member of the transferrin family of iron-binding proteins. Numerous functions have been reported and continue to be reported for the protein, some of which are related to its iron-binding properties.

Studying Lactoferrin N-Glycosylation [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017 Lactoferrin is a multifunctional glycoprotein found in the milk of most mammals. In addition to its well-known role of binding iron, lactoferrin carries many important biological functions, including the promotion of cell proliferation and ...

Lactoferrin and bifidobacteria
BioMetals, 2014We herein summarized the effects of lactoferrin (LF) on bifidobacteria. Many in vitro studies previously reported the growth-promoting (bifidogenic) effects of LF on bifidobacteria. The involvement of bound iron, sugar chains, and LF peptides has been proposed in this bifidogenic mechanism.

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 2002
This paper reviews our current knowledge of the structure and function of the iron-binding protein lactoferrin. In particular, it attempts to relate the various proposed physiological functions of lactoferrin to its most characteristic biochemical properties, i.e. its ability to bind iron and its highly basic nature.

Antiviral Activity of Lactoferrin
1998In 1976, Matthews et al.19 reported the antiviral activity of milk proteins, underlining their possible clinical importance. Only recently, this effect has been ascribed mainly to lactoferrin (Lf). Lf was initially shown to exert a protective influence in mice infected with Friend leukemia virus15.

Lactoferrin, Anti-Lactoferrin Antibodies and Inflammatory Disease
1993The nucleophilic properties of human lactoferrin (Lf) were demonstrated by immunofluorescence microscopy using cryostat rat tissue sections, and the nuclear/perinuclear distribution of Lf in ethanol-fixed human neutrophils was visualized with rabbit anti-human Lf, producing a P-ANCA/GS-ANA staining pattern. Prevention of complement activation by Lf was

Lactoferrin. Antiviral activity of lactoferrin.
Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 1998A series of native and chemically derivatized lactoferrins (Lfs) purified from milk and colostrum were assayed in vitro for their anti-HIV and anti-HCMV-cytopathic effects in MT4 cells and fibroblasts respectively. All Lfs from bovine and human milk or colostrum were able to completely block HCMV replication as well as inhibited HIV-1 induced ...

Lactoferrin Structure and Functions
2007Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron binding glycoprotein of the transferrin family that is expressed in most biological fluids and is a major component of mammals' innate immune system. Its protective effect ranges from direct antimicrobial activities against a large panel of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, to anti ...
