XOR is also involved in secretion of milk fat globules in a process dependent on the enzyme protein rather than on its enzymic activity, which is known to vary greatly with time after parturition and also between species. It therefore suggests that K 3 is very prominent in the activity of xanthine oxidase from cow milk. Heat of milk increased free and membrane-bound xanthine oxidase activities in both buttermilk and skim milk. The interference of endogenously occurring xanthine oxidase (XO) has been subs'antially reduced by addition of an ultrafiltration step, which removed 61 ± 10 (mean ± SD) % of the XO activity.

Oster has postulated that the enzyme xanthine oxidase in homogenized cow's milk is the cause of myocardial infarction and angina pectoris. During lactation these cells synthesise milk-fat globules that are packaged in a membrane of which xanthine oxidase is the predominant protein, thus milk is a rich source of the enzyme. Nathans, G.R. Xanthine oxidase has now been found in some human milk, in maximum amount on the 3rd day post partum. By virtue of its capacity to generate ROS and RNS, milk XOR may play an antimicrobial defensive role in the neonatal gut, complementing endogenous enzyme of the intestinal epithelium. Xanthine Oxidase is abundantly expressed in liver and low in heart, brain and lung as what is described in PMID: 10462034 .

The enzyme has broad substrate specificity and is capable of reducing oxygen to generate the reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. Xanthine oxidoreductase enzymes have been isolated from a wide range of organisms, from bacteria to man, and catalyze the hydroxylation of a wide variety of purine, … Historically, xanthine oxidase (XO) and xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) were considered to be distinct enzymes; the enzyme was isolated in its XO form, using oxygen as the electron acceptor, from mammalian sources such as cow’s milk [], whereas it was always purified in its XDH form, with NAD + as the preferred electron acceptor, from other species, such as chicken [] or insects []. The reductive half-reaction of the oxidase from milk has been extensively studied (1) and there is general consensus that the reaction proceeds at the molybdenum center as shown in Scheme 2. Biochim Biophys Acta. Xanthine oxidase (milk) preparations were pur- chased from P-L Biochemicals, Inc. (Milwaukee, Vis., U.S.A.) and Koch-Light Laboratories Ltd (Coln- brook, Bucks, England) ; they were used without further purification. Thus, it was concluded that the enzyme.~anthine oxidase, rather than an impurity, was involved in the oxidative process.
