Abstract
⺠The anti-apoptotic effect of lactoferrin on neutrophils is dependent on its iron saturation status. ⺠The anti-apoptotic effect of lactoferrin is mediated at an early stage in neutrophil apoptosis. ⺠Lactoferrin inhibits generation of ceramide and activation of caspase 8 and Bax, as well as Bid cleavage and loss of Mcl-1.
