Lactoferrin Antibody (KT33) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects lactoferrin in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Lactoferrin plays a crucial role in iron metabolism by binding to iron and regulating its availability, which is essential for various biological processes, including cellular respiration and DNA synthesis. Lactoferrin is predominantly found in secretory fluids such as milk, tears, and saliva, as well as in neutrophils, where lactoferrin contributes to the immune response by exhibiting antimicrobial properties. Anti-lactoferrin antibody (KT33) helps study how lactoferrin sequesters iron to limit pathogen growth and enhance host defense mechanisms. Lactoferrin modulates immune responses by influencing lymphocyte activation and proliferation, which underscores lactoferrin′s importance in maintaining immune homeostasis. The gene encoding human lactoferrin is located on chromosome 3p21.31, and lactoferrin expression can be influenced by various physiological and pathological conditions, making lactoferrin a significant biomarker for research in immunology and infectious diseases. Lactoferrin (KT33) antibody serves as an invaluable tool for researchers investigating lactoferrin′s multifaceted roles in health and disease.
