Effect of lactoferrin on the viability of Arn8 and HaCaT cell lines.

The results on the effect of LF from different sources on the viability of two cell lines (Arn8 and HaCaT) are presented in the work. It is shown that both hLF and bLF have an effect on the viability of these two cell lines, and that bLF decreases the cell viability in much more extend than hLF. Possible action mechanisms of LF are discussed.
