 Use of Alloferon


Alloferon 1 is an antiviral and antitumoral peptide. Alloferon 1 stimulates natural cytotoxicity of human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Alloferon 1 also induces IFN synthesis, and enhances antiviral and antitumor resistance in mice. Alloferon 1 also shows anti-inflammatory activity in λ-carrageenan-induced paw edema model. Alloferon 1 can be isolated from the blood of the blow fly Calliphora vicina (Diptera)[1][2][3].
