Recombinant bovine lactoferrin enhances immune response under cold stress conditions by positively modulating gut microbiota.
The study demonstrated significant improvement in immunosuppression among mice exposed to cold stress, with noticeable changes in gut microbiota diversity.
Gut microbiota modulation was assessed using microbial analysis techniques to establish the link between lactoferrin and immune function.
Findings suggest the potential for using recombinant bovine lactoferrin as a therapeutic approach for stress-related immune dysfunction in animals.
