Summary
Lactoferrin (Lf) is a mammalian cationic iron binding glycoprotein belonging to the transferrin family which was discovered 70 years ago, and isolated simultaneously from human and bovine milks in 1960. It is widely distributed in all biological fluids and is also expressed by immune cells, which release it under stimulation by pathogens
