AF is an endogenous protein that plays a critical role in regulating fluid transport and inflammatory responses across cell membranes. The company commercializes medical foods, such as SPC-Flakes and Salovum, which are designed to induce or provide AF for the treatment of conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, chronic diarrhea, and Ménière's disease. Beyond its commercial portfolio, Lantmännen AS-Faktor is investigating the therapeutic potential of AF-derived peptides, including AF-16, for acute conditions such as traumatic brain injury and respiratory distress.
