TRANSFER FACTOR TRI-FACTOR FORMULA Transfer Factor Tri-Factor Formula, originally known as the "Transfer Factor Original or Advance" has 300mg of Transfer Factor per capsule (highest mg of Transfer Factor), and is highly recommended as adjuvant or ajunct to medicine for Auto Immune Dysfunction, Bacterial/Virus Infections, Cardiovascular Diseases, Neurological Diseases, Brain Tumor, Cancer and Leukemia e.g Diabetes, Goutic Arthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoporosis, Allergic Rhinitis, Severe Atopic Dermatitis or Skin Asthma, Eczema, Psoriasis, Allergy, Kawasaki Disease, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, Severe Asthma, Severe Vasculitis, Sepsis with Meningitis, Septicemia, Acne, Vertigo, Migraine, Ulcer, Leptospirosis, Dengue, Hypertension, Stroke, Patients due for Angioplasty and By-Pass Operations, Multi-Drug Resistant TB, Multi-Drug Resistant Leprosy with Lepra Reaction, Erectile Dysfunction, Blighted Ovum, Low Sperm Count, Alzheimer's Disease, ADHD, Depression, CNS and other mental problems, Poor Memory, Renal Failure, Kidney and Liver Diseases, and all types of Tumor and Cancer, etc. Many people love this product because its effect is like having a Stem Cell in a Bottle. My wife Dr. Catherine Mendoza, Pediatrician, uses it for all her Dengue patients. Imagine a 3 year old toddler with 10,000 platelet count, bleeding nose and mouth, after taking Transfer Factor Tri-Factor formula 5 capsules 3X a day, in just 2 days went up to 150,000 platelet count normal without blood transfusion! The question is where does the platelet come from? The platelet volume came from the bone marrow's stem cells which differentiated into platelets. Isn't that a natural stem cell reproduction by our own body? What can be more safer than this? Transfer Factors where tested in vitro to multiply and increase one's Natural Killer Cell Activity (killing rate) by 283% in just 2 days (please see following pages to learn more)! http://mjuguan4lifetransferfactor.blogspot.com/[5/20/16, 4:27:12 PM] The AMAZING 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR! Dr. Ma. Luisa Venida, Dermatologist and Founder, Skin Research Foundation of the Philippines uses Transfer Factor for cancer and leprosy. One elder man had cancer on the face which caved-in his left face. Meaning, he lost his left face. After taking Transfer Factor 5 capsules 3X a day for 2 months his left face came back to normalcy. If that is not stem cell reproduction, then what is it? The face came from facial tissues; facial tissues came from facial cells; facial cells came from stem cells in the bone marrow; therefore, these stem cells differentiated into facial cells, into tissues and thus became the face! Transfer Factor, in short helps boost the immune system to activate the stem cells by 283% . Another patient 19 yo boy suffering from leprosy was dying and almost lost his liver due to complications. After taking Transfer Factor, his liver became 100% brand new. If that isn't stem cell reproduction, then what is it? So, the stem cells in the bone marrow multiplied and differentiated into liver cells; liver cells became liver tissues and eventually came a brand new liver organ. PRICE: Pesos 2,845 per Bottle (60 capsules) DOSAGE: Maintenance - 2caps/day; Sick - 4caps/day; Severe - 6caps/day; Cancer - 10caps/day [Disclaimer: Transfer Factor is not a cure, nor a drug. Transfer Factor EDUCATES, BOOSTS AND BALANCES THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, making our immune system intelligent, awakened and multiplied and then balanced.] ABOUT TRANSFER FACTOR: Transfer Factors (TF) are one of nature’s most elegant form of immune communication. It awakens our sleeping immune surveillance cells to do its job properly. This is the new science called, Transferceutical Science, the new science of longevity, or restoration biology. This molecule can make you 30 years younger if you take it for one year. TF is responsible for keeping our arteries young and healthy by a process called internal homeostasis, the general cleaning of all our veins from molecular debris brought about by toxins, or foreign bodies that enter our blood system. So, with TF, our whole body enjoys massive cleansing internally speaking, thus resulting into youthfulness and our cells are replaced with new cells. As a result, the skin becomes younger and smoother via enhanced skin integrity technology. This results further into internal beauty and recovery of the cells within producing external beauty. This has a domino effect to all the other organs of the body, thus, making the immune system fully optimized, preventing diseases, and restoring the body cells to its original form. "Transfer Factor is a miraculous discovery that was first made in 1949 - a tiny molecule in white blood cells, a communication molecule that helps alert immune system cells to what they ought to be doing", says David Lisonbee, CEO & Founder of 4Life Research LLC, Sandy Utah USA. In medical parlance, according to Kirkpatrick, et. al, "Transfer Factors are peptides consisting of 44 amino acids. Transfer Factor molecules are smaller than antibodies and just one third the size of a virus and have molecular weights of less than 10,000 daltons (between 3,500 to 5,000 daltons). Transfer Factor (TF) (produced by 4Life Research, USA) is a hypoallergenic product, free of casein, lactoglobulins and other large proteins, but it does contain intact cytokine fractions identical to leukocytic cytokines. Academician A.A. Vorobiev of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences points out that unlike other immunomodulators Transfer Factor has a wide spectrum of activity, is safe, is administered orally, has no contraindications or http://mjuguan4lifetransferfactor.blogspot.com/[5/20/16, 4:27:12 PM] The AMAZING 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR! side effects, and is effective both in adults and children." According to the book of doctors, PDR Physician's Desk Reference edition 2012, Transfer Factor (TF) is an immunologic information molecule (meaning made by the immune system) which contain antigen information which educates, boosts, and helps maintain immune system balance. TF is the best Adjuvant or Adjunct to medicine, meaning it works well with medicine to make your recovery 437% faster because it can EDUCATE, BOOST AND BALANCE your immune system army to tow away and destroy toxins and other antigenic stimulus e.g. bacteria, virus, parasites, fungal and tumor cells from your body. So, your body becomes free from any molecular debris from head to foot. When you are finally clean, disease will cease to be. So, if you take this daily, then you become clean everyday as toxins are wiped away daily. Remember toxins come in to our body 24/7 due to the influx of pesticides, formalin, NO3 and other chemicals in our fruits, vegetables, meat and almost all our food are now contaminated, even milk from our mothers. Our immune system cells are generally dumb (mangmang) thats why 36 vaccines as a baby provided us with 36 information to recognize a very limited number of pathogens, but with Transfer Factor, you are enjoying UNLIMITED IMMUNOLOGIC INFORMATION as it is extracted from cows colostrum and chicken egg yolks. Of thousands of animals the cows and chickens won because of their super heroic immune system because they can build immunologic information on real time basis. Mother's colostrum in the first three days also contain TF but with limited information, but still it bridges the generational gap by passing cell mediated immunity from mother to infant with 500,000 immunity codes. Ever wonder why cows and chickens don't die of dengue? Have you read in the papers cows dying of dengue? (Nabalitaan nyo ba BAKA dedbol sa dengue?) None. Why? They have something we don't have, and thats Transfer Factor with Unlimited Immunity Codes. So, we might as well get it from them for MOTHER NATURE HAS GIFTED THEM with TRANSFER FACTORS WITH UNLIMITED INFORMATION so they will not become extinct in the wild. Otherwise wala na tayong breakfast . This is free from Ig (Immunoglobulines or antibodies) and hormones of the cow and chickens because it passed through our Patented Dry Bio-Tech Ultra-Filtration Extraction Process Machine. Transfer Factor is common in all of the animal kingdom (that includes humans) as clinically proven by science. Meaning, it is not foreign to humans even if it comes from animals. Doctors who are now using TF enjoy overwhelming success in their practice because TF is a Toxin Remover, a Pathogen Detector or a Virus Protection Software, wherein antigen stimulus not yet known to doctors or not yet written in the books of medicine are already recognized by the cows and chickens. If you ask me why some cows die of mad cow disease and why do birds die of bird flu, well, these animals have compromised immune systems due to exposure to hormones, pesticides, antibiotics and other drugs. So not all cows and chickens are the same. Our cows and chickens in Sandy, Utah USA are free from all of these thats why our 4Life Research Manufacturing Plants are APPROVED BY THE FDA. Our bottles are on the other hand APPROVED by the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) USA. In the Philippines, we are APROVED BY BFAD. http://mjuguan4lifetransferfactor.blogspot.com/[5/20/16, 4:27:12 PM] The AMAZING 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR! http://mjuguan4lifetransferfactor.blogspot.com/[5/20/16, 4:27:12 PM] The AMAZING 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR!

Pierre Simon de Laplace, 751 Techno Park, Campinas, SP 13069-320, Brazil; any.goncalves@infinitypharma.com.br * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Imuno TF® is a nutritional supplement composed of isolated transfer factors (TF) from porcine spleen. It is composed of a specific mixture of molecules that impact functions of the biological systems and historically is linked to the immune system regulation. In this study, we demonstrate for the first time its proteomic analysis, nutritional composition, and safety profile in terms of mutagenic potential and acute oral dose (LD50). The obtained analysis indicated the product is a complex set of oligo- and polypeptides constituted of 163 different peptides which can potentially act on multiple mechanisms on the immune system pathways. The chemical composition showed low fat and low sugar content, saturated fatty acids-free, and the presence of 10 vitamins and 11 minerals. −1 No mutagenic effect was observed, and the LD50 was 5000 mg kg body weight. This accounts for a safe product to be used by the oral route, with potential benefits for the immune system.

KIRKPATRICK Conrad D. Stephnzsmt Luburatmy for &starch in Immunology NationalJewish ckttcr for Immumhgy and Respimtmy Mdkine Denver, colorado80206 INTRODUCTION Successful transfer of cell-mediated immune responses from immune donors to nonimmune recipients was first described by Landsteiner and Chase in the early 1940~.~JGuinea pigs were sensitized to express contact allergy to picryl chloride or delayed hypersensitivity to tuberculin. After washed peritoneal exudate cells from the sensitized donors were given to unsensitized recipients, the recipients acquired the ability to express the cell-mediated immune responses of the donors. Further studies indicated that long-lasting and regularly successfid transfers were observed when there were syngeneic relationships between the donors and recipients, and only when intact, living donor cells were used. Attempts to transfer these reactivities with serum or dead cells were unsuccessful. Later experiments by Crepea and Cooke3 and Jeter and associates4 disclosed that under certain conditions it was possible to transfer contact hypersensitivity to simple chemicals such as poison ivy antigens and chlorodinitrobenzene (CDNB) from sensi- tized guinea pigs to unsensitized recipients with unliving lymphoid cells, allogeneic cells, and even cell extracts. The disparate results between these reports and the work of Chase have never been completely explained. The active component of the cell extracts was called “transfer factor,” and transfer of delayed-type hypersensitivity in humans with transfer factors was studied extensively by Lawrence and associates5in the 1950s. Their experiments involved lysates of blood leukocytes from donors who had positive delayed-hypersensitivity to antigens such as tuberculin (PPD), diphtheria toxoid, streptococcal M protein, or coccidioidin.

However, the relation between chemokines and the disease activity or prognosis of DM-IP has not been elucidated. We evaluated the serum C-C motif chemokine ligand (CCL) 2, Th1 chemokines (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand [CXCL] 9, CXCL10, CXCL11), and Th2 chemokine (CCL17) profiles of 30 patients, and examined the relation between these chemokines and the disease activity or prognosis of DM-IP. Initial serum CCL2 level was higher in the death group (P = 0.007). To determine the cut-off points effective as poor prognostic factors of DM-IP, ROC curve analysis was carried out on initial serum CCL2 level. The value that maximized the area under the ROC curve was 894 pg/mL (sensitivity: 100%, specificity: 70.8%). Serum CCL2, CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11 levels were lower at 2 weeks after treatment initiation than before treatment. Serum CCL2, CXCL10, and CXCL11 levels at 2 weeks after treatment initiation were higher in the death group. Serum levels of chemokines such as CCL2, CXCL10, and CXCL11 may be possible biomarkers of disease activity and prognosis in DM-IP, and serum CCL2 level may be useful when deciding initial treatment. Dermatomyositis (DM) is one of the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies characterized by inflammation of skin and muscle1, 2.

  • Technical Paper
    TECHNICAL PAPER BIOCHEMISTRY OF TRANSFER FACTOR I. INTRODUCTION Glutrasol products are comprised of three main ingredients: 1. transfer factor 2. glucans 3. lactic acid generating bacteria. Minor ingredients are adjusted for specific applications. This disclosure focuses on transfer factor. We know Glutrasol works because TEST groups repeatedly show dramatic improvement, relative to CONTROL groups. Here is information on how (biochemically) Glutrasol works. II. INDUCER/SUPPRESSOR FRACTIONS OF TRANSFER FACTOR Transfer factors are produced by T-lymphocytes and can transfer the ability to recognize a pathogen to cells that have not been in contact with the pathogen. They also heighten the immune system’s ability to react (increased reactivity or inducer function) to pathogens. Transfer factor produces a trigger for T-cell recognition of antigen. Transfer factor is a mixture of peptides, typically with a molecular weight < 10,000 Daltons. It's more appropriate to speak of "transfer factors" instead of "transfer factor." Fortunately, today's preparative methods produce consistent mixtures, which lead to repeatable responses. Fractions within the mixture serve different (and sometimes opposite) purposes. Two particularly important fractions are (1) the inducer fraction, and (2) the suppressor fraction [1][2]. Opposing functions were confirmed using the direct Leucocyte Migration Inhibition (LMI) test. These two fractions are consistent with field observations that transfer factor balances the immune system. For example, Date: 12/27/16 Author: Jack Menear, Chief Scientist and Patent Strategist, CortControl, LLC www.cortcontrol.com 1-855-982-2263 [email protected] TECHNICAL PAPER 1.

Avinguda Diagonal, 442, 08037 Barcelona, Spain. 2Clinic Bascoy. Carrer d'Horaci 9, 08022 Barcelona, Spain. Abstract Although a vast knowledge has already been gathered on the pathophysiology of COVID-19, there are still limited, non-optimal treatment options. In this paper, we describe a multicentre, retrospective, observational study to describe the course of SARS-CoV-2 disease in patients treated with ImmunoFormulation (IF), an add-on therapy developed to decrease duration of clinical symptoms. In parallel, a group of patients that did not receive IF was used for comparison (using standard of care treatment). A total of 39 patients were evaluated. Throughout the observational period, 90% of patients recovered in the IF cohort and 47.4% in the Control cohort (p=0.0057). From the symptoms with statistically significant differences, the duration of symptoms (i.e., the time to recover from it) was shorter in the IF cohort than in control cohort (in days, average), especially for fever (2.25 x 21.78), dry cough (4.38 x 24.00), dyspnoea (3.67 x 20.00), headache (2.00 x 26.50), diarrhoea (5.25 x 25.25), and weakness (1.92 x 23.30).

  • The Mysterious, and Potentially Revolutionary, Immunological Properties of Transfer Factor: a Review
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 31 May 2019 doi:10.20944/preprints201905.0386.v1 1 The Mysterious, and Potentially Revolutionary, Immunological Properties of Transfer Factor: A Review Robert Root-Bernstein, Ph. D. Department of Physiology 2174 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building Michigan State University East Lansing, MI 48824 USA [email protected] Abstract Transfer factor is the name given to material derived from activated lymphocytes that is probably composed of a complex of a peptide and a short segment of RNA and which has the reported ability to transfer specific T cell immunity to uncommitted lymphocytes. Many independent groups around the world reported isolating transfer factors between 1955 and 1990 and demonstrating their ability to transfer passive immunity from one animal or individual to another, often within 24 hours of inoculation. Such activity is potentially revolutionary both in making T cell vaccines readily manufacturable and also because the existence of transfer factors would undermine the basic assumptions of the clonal selection theory, which currently dominates immunological theory. Unfortunately, lack of the microanalytical and synthetic techniques required to properly identify transfer factors, combined with safety factors associated with it derivation from blood sources susceptible to HIV and prion infections, put an end to transfer factor research after 1990. This paper reviews the evidence supporting transfer factor activity and suggests that this potentially revolutionary

  • Genetic Variants in ADAM33 Are Associated with Airway
    Wang et al. BMC Pulmonary Medicine 2014, 14:173 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2466/14/173 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Genetic variants in ADAM33 are associated with airway inflammation and lung function in COPD Xinyan Wang1†, Wan Li2†, Kun Huang1, Xiaowen Kang1, Zhaoguo Li1, Chengcheng Yang1, Xiaomei Wu1* and Lina Chen2* Abstract Background: Genetic factors play a role in the development and severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The pathogenesis of COPD is a multifactorial process including an inflammatory cell profile. Recent studies revealed that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within ADAM33 increased the susceptibility to COPD through changing the airway inflammatory process and lung function. Methods: In this paper, we investigated associations of four polymorphisms (T1, T2, S2 and Q-1) of ADAM33 as well as their haplotypes with pulmonary function and airway inflammatory process in an East Asian population of patients with COPD. Results: We found that T1, T2 and Q-1 were significantly associated with the changes of pulmonary function and components of cells in sputum of COPD, and T1 and Q-1 were significantly associated with cytokines and mediators of inflammation in airway of COPD in recessive models. 10 haplotypes were significantly associated with transfer factor of the lung for carbon monoxide in the disease state, 4 haplotypes were significantly associated with forced expiratory volume in one second, and other haplotypes were associated with airway inflammation. Conclusions: We confirmed for the first time that ADAM33 was involved in the pathogenesis of COPD by affecting airway inflammation and immune response in an East Asian population. Our results made the genetic background of COPD, a common and disabling disease, more apparent, which would supply genetic support for the study of the mechanism, classification and treatment for this disease.
