The antiviral activity of lactoferrin related to its binding to SARS-CoV-2 and cells and protein-protein docking methods, provided the direct recognition between lactoferrin and spike S, thus hindering the spike S attachment to the human ACE2 receptor and consequently virus entering into the cells. 222 We performed the same analysis over the evaluated human lactoferrin (hLF)-Spike complex, 223 obtaining a binding pose superimposable to that observed for the bovine protein (Fig. 5B) . Clinical trial 397 We performed a randomized, prospective, interventional study to assess the efficacy of a liposomal Blood parameters obtained at T0 in COVID-19 group and control group were compared using t-test. ./cache/cord-270049-54t3w94z.txt ./txt/cord-270049-54t3w94z.txt
