Lactoferrin may inhibit the development of cancer via its immunostimulatory and immunomodulatory activities

17 Sept 2021

Abstract excerpt

Lactoferrin (Lf) is secreted by ectodermal tissue and has a structure similar to that of transferrin. Although Lf seems to be multifunctional, its main function is related to the natural defense system of mammals. The present review aims to highlight the major actions of Lf, including the regulation of cell growth, the inhibition of toxic compound formation, the removal of harmful free radicals and its important...
