New insights into the systemic effects of oral lactoferrin: transcriptome profiling.

The article presents New insights into the systemic effects of oral lactoferrin: transcriptome profiling. Topics discussed include the immunomodulatory nature of lactoferrin (LF) derives from its ability to bridge innate and adaptive immunity in obtaining physiological equilibrium; and the aim of this study was to evaluate the systemic effects of orally and intravenously (IV) administered recombinant human LF (rhLF) on blood cell transcriptome profiling.
