What role do transfer factors play in the immune system?
These are an inducer fraction, a antigen specific fraction and a suppressor fraction.¹ The immune system must be able to respond quickly, respond specifically and not exhaust itself by over responding and attacking normal tissue. The three transfer factor fractions were named because of the discovered affects they had on immune system. The inducer fraction triggers a general state of readiness in the immune system. The antigen specific fraction is an array of critical tags used by the immune system to identify a host of enemy microbes. The suppressor fraction is as important as the other fractions in that the components of this fraction keep the immune system from focusing all its strength on a defeated infection while ignoring new microbial threats. The suppressor fraction is also responsible for controlling allergic reactions and blocking autoimmune disorders.
