The Biology of Lactoferrin, an Iron-Binding Protein That Can Help Defend Against Viruses and Bacteria
Lactoferrin is a nutrient classically found in mammalian milk. It binds iron and is transferred via a variety of receptors into and between cells, serum, bile, and cerebrospinal fluid. It has important immunological properties, and is both antibacterial and antiviral. In particular, there is evidenc...
