Welcome.
Lactoferrin, a multifunctional cationic iron-binding glycoprotein, is constitutively synthesized by exocrine glands and by neutrophils following induction. The multitargeting functions of Lactoferrin can be dependent or independent from its iron-binding ability.
Although Lactoferrin is classified as dietary supplement, a critical point is that commercial Lactoferrin preparations suffer from a lack of standardization, often resulting in an endless debate on its actual efficacy.
Since 2017 onwards, the Lactoferrin Conference has pointed out the importance of quality standard assessment for commercial Lactoferrin products in terms of iron content, integrity, glycosylation pattern, presence of isoforms and contaminants. This topic will be also critically discussed during the 2025 Conference.
One of the main aims of the 2025 Conference will be to better disclose the molecular mechanisms at the base of Lactoferrin functionality, as well as to discuss about the clinical outcomes.
