Transfer Factors Study with Autistic Children
These children were given three capsules containing transfer factors, three times daily, for three months. Each patient was assessed prior to the treatment, six weeks into the study, and at the completion of the three-month study.... more
Transfer Factors and HIV
Included in this study were 25 HIV-infected patients (20 male and 5 female), ages 19 to 56 (15 patients ages 21-25). Individuals were classified according to V.I. Pokrovskys classification (1989) for HIV-infection... more
Transfer Factors and Inflammation
OBJECTIVE: To investigate i) whether the Dialyzable Leukocyte Extract (DLE) modulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines in leukocytes activated by the bacterial cell wall components lipopolysaccharide (LPS), lipoteichoic acid (LTA), and peptidoglycan (PGN); ii) the effect of DLE on LPS-stimulated endothelial cells;... more

Transfer Factors and Diabetes
Background Intensive lifestyle interventions can reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes in people with impaired glucose tolerance, but how long these benefits extend beyond the period of active intervention, and whether such interventions reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, is unclear..... more
Transfer Factors are a Modifier of Biological Age

There is a close link between the decrease of functional activity of the immune system and aging. Thus, we decided to study immunomodulators to determine to what extent they may affect biological age indices. A new immune theory of aging (V.I.Dontsov, V.N. Krut’ko, 2002) points to the role of specific T-lymphocytes subpopulations in sustaining a certain level of normal cellular growth in the body and dwells on the importance of their functional decrease having a strong impact on aging. Stimulation of the function of these cells by transfer factors, an immunomodulator, seemed a plausible method of “treating aging”. The evaluation of the role transfer factors contribute in the process of aging is at the basis of this study.
Twelve (12) men aged 55-73 were included in the study. A dose of 300 mg. of transfer factors was given daily with meals 5 times a week for 6 weeks. Biological age was determined using the “АPK” method (“Diagnostics of aging: biological age” (National gerontology center, Moscow)). The following biomarkers were used for making the determinations: AP (arterial pressure), pulse wave velocity, VC (vital pulmonary capacity), static balance, Shtange’s test, adaptation testing, body mass, left hand strength, Shulte’s test, Veksler’s test, neuromuscular test, hearing frequency threshold and the SAN’s questionnaire. The functional activities of body systems were evaluated by means of Nakatani’s electropuncture diagnostics. Chronological age of the group was 63.5±0.7. Before the use of transfer factors the biological age of the group differed from chronological by -4.2 ±0.6 years. The majority of men demonstrated a decrease in the functional activity of endocrine and of immune systems’ as well as hyperfunction of the liver and of urinary bladder and hypofunction pancreatic.
Results: The study showed that initially disturbed body system functions were significantly normalized. After the course of transfer factors treatment, the difference between biological and chronological age was (-8.2) ±0.5 years (p<0.05), which is a rejuvenation effect of 4 years.
Explanation of Transfer Factors
Have you ever wondered how many components of your body and immune system know what to do and when to do it? When a bacterium, virus or fungus enters your body, dozens of immune system cells, molecules and body chemicals move into action.... more

Transfer Factors and Premature Aging
The November 27, 2006 issue of the AMA journal Archives of Internal Medicine published the finding of researchers from Cornell University, Johns Hopkins, the University of Michigan, and the National Institute on Aging that older women with reduced levels of vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and selenium had a greater risk of developing disability in their activities of daily living over a three year follow-up period than those with higher levels. ... more
