Abstract
|
|
|
Lactoferrin(Lf) has the function of modulation in the host defense systems, including cytokine production and immune responses. We have tested the effect of Lf and Lf ydrolysates(Lf-H) on the productions of tumor necrosis factor-(TNF-) and nitric oxide(NO) in macrophage cells. Lf from Korean native cattle(K-Lf) and hydrolyzed K-Lf(K-Lf-H) increased the production of TNF- in RAW264.7 cells with dose-dependency. Bovine Lf(B-Lf), human Lf(H-Lf), and its hydrolysates did not induce either TNF- production or NO production. On the other hand those didn\`t affect on the production of TNF- in lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. K-Lf induced the production of NO similar to its role on the TNF- production.
