Bulk Fractionation of Donor Human Milk [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 1984
Milk donated by mothers of term infants may not be of optimal nutrient concentration if used to feed low birthweight infants (LBW), but since many milk constituents have functions other than classically 'nutritional' ones it is, in theory, qualitatively superior to artificial formulae.

The impact of the Covid‐19 pandemic on North American milk banks

open access: yesMaternal and Child Nutrition, 2021
This study aims to understand the impact of the Covid‐19 pandemic on human milk banking services in North America, with a focus on the United States. We triangulated questionnaire data with interviews and text‐based website data.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Donated Human Milk as a Determinant Factor for the Gut Bifidobacterial Ecology in Premature Babies

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Correct establishment of the gut microbiome is compromised in premature babies, with Bifidobacterium being one of the most affected genera. Prematurity often entails the inability to successfully breastfeed, therefore requiring the implementation of ...

Effect of Holder pasteurization on macronutrients and energy content of pooled donor human milk

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2021
Background: Donor human milk (DHM) is the best option for preterm nutrition when mother’s milk is unavailable. For its proven benefits on the life and health of premature babies, DHM should be part of the essential newborn care.

Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated food allergy and the role of allergen‐specific B cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Food allergy arises when allergen‐specific B cells preferentially produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against harmless foods. This article explains the mechanisms driving IgE‐mediated reactions, highlights the central role of these B cells, and discusses how natural tolerance (NT) and oral immunotherapy (OIT) can reshape allergic immune responses.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

High-Temperature Short-Time Pasteurization System for Donor Milk in a Human Milk Bank Setting

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Donor milk is the best alternative for the feeding of preterm newborns when mother's own milk is unavailable. For safety reasons, it is usually pasteurized by the Holder method (62.5°C for 30 min).
