Oleic acid may be the key contributor in the BAMLET-induced erythrocyte hemolysis and tumoricidal action.
A chance discovery of the tumoricidal action of a human milk fraction led to the characterization of the active component as oleic acid complex of the α-lactalbumin, which was given the acronym HAMLET.
