Antiviral properties of milk proteins and peptides
2006-11-01
Abstract excerpt
A substantial body of evidence, primarily from in vitro studies, suggests that some milk proteins interfere with viral infections. Lactoferrin (LF) has been the protein most comprehensively studied for its antiviral effects. Interference with viral infections is primarily based on adsorption of LF to receptors on the host cell's surface or on binding to viral particles, both enveloped and non-enveloped. In either...
