Abstract:
We report the activity of recombinant human lactoferrin against Helicobacter pylori. Lactoferrin exerted a time- and dose-dependent action against 8 of the 13 clinical isolates of H. pylori tested in vitro. These results highlight a potential therapeutic use for lactoferrin against H.pylori infection.
