Journal ArticleDOI

Antibacterial activity of lactoferrin and a pepsin-derived lactoferrin peptide fragment.

TL;DR: These experiments offer evidence that bovine lactoferrin and lactoferricin damage the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria, and demonstrate consistent bactericidal activity against gram- negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Persistence of episomal HIV-1 infection intermediates in patients on highly active anti-retroviral therapy.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated here ongoing virus replication in a large percentage of infected individuals on highly active anti-retroviral therapy, despite sustained undetectable levels of plasma viral RNA, has important implications for the clinical management of HIV-1-infected individuals and for the development of virus eradication strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification, purification, and characterization of major antigenic proteins of Campylobacter jejuni.

TL;DR: The PEB1 and PEB3 proteins appear to be candidate antigens for both a Campylobacter vaccine and for serological assays for the pathogen.
Book ChapterDOI

The effects of lactoferrin on gram-negative bacteria.

TL;DR: Work by several groups has shown that the protein synergistically interacts with immunoglobins, complement, and neutrophil cationic proteins against Gram-negative bacteria, suggesting a mechanism for the supplemental effects of lactoferrin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lactoferrin and transferrin damage of the Gram-negative outer membrane is modulated by Ca2+ and Mg2+

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that lactoferrin and transferrin act as membrane-active agents with the effects modulated by Ca2+ and Mg2+.
