Immunologic Effects of a Novel Bovine Lactoferrin-Derived Peptide on the Gut and Clinical Perspectives.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bovine lactoferrin is a natural iron-binding glycoprotein known for its antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties. In this study, we artificially recombined a fragment of bovine lactoferrin with immunomodulatory and antimicrobial properties to create a novel peptide named LF-MQL. The primary objective was to investigate the effects of LF-MQL on the intestinal tract and immune cells in animals. First, we assessed the in vitro activation effects of LF-MQL on mouse peritoneal macrophages. The results indicated that LF-MQL enhanced the macrophage phagocytic activity and increased IL-1β mRNA expression without significantly affecting IL-6 mRNA levels. Next, we examined the effects of LF-MQL on mucosal immunity by administering LF-MQL orally at doses of 300 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, and 3 mg/kg to mice. The results demonstrated that different doses of LF-MQL modulated IL-6 and IL-10 mRNA levels in the small intestine. Low doses enhanced the intestinal immune response, while higher doses reduced the inflammatory response. In conclusion, LF-MQL exerts immunomodulatory effects rather than simply boosting immune activity in animal models.
