Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron-binding glycoprotein of the transferrin family, which is expressed in
most biological fluids with particularly high levels in mammalian milk. Its multiple activities lie …

Lactoferrin is a member of the transferrin family of iron-binding glycoproteins that is
abundantly expressed and secreted from glandular epithelial cells. In secretions, such as …

Lactoferrin (Lf) belongs to the family of antimicrobial molecules that constitute the principal
defense line of nonvertebrate organisms. In human immunity, their roles are considerably …

BACKGROUND: Lactoferrin (Lf) is an 80kDa iron-binding glycoprotein of the transferrin
family. It is abundant in milk and in most biological fluids and is a cell-secreted molecule that …

Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein present in most human exocrine fluids,
particularly breast milk. Lactoferrin is also released from neutrophil granules, and its …

Lactoferrin (Lf) is an 80kDa iron-binding protein of the transferrin family that is abundantly
expressed in most biological fluids. It is now recognized that this glycoprotein is a key …

Lactoferrin (Lf) is a glycoprotein of the primary innate immune-defense system of mammals
present in milk and other mucosal secretions. This protein of the transferrin family has broad …

Lactoferrin (Lf), a cationic glycoprotein able to chelate two ferric irons per molecule, is
synthesized by exocrine glands and neutrophils. Since the first anti-microbial function …

Lactoferrin, an iron-binding glycoprotein, can be regarded as a cell-secreted mediator that
bridges innate and adaptive immune function by regulating target cell response. It is a major …

Lactoferrin is a non-heme iron binding glycoprotein produced during lactation and by
epithelial cells at mucosal surfaces. The protein is a prominent component of the first line of …
