Novel high-molecular weight fucosylated milk oligosaccharides identified in dairy streams. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Oligosaccharides are the third largest component in human milk. This abundance is remarkable because oligosaccharides are not digestible by the newborn, and yet they have been conserved and amplified during evolution.

Human milk oligosaccharides as prebiotics

open access: yesPediatrics and Neonatology, 2023
Based on its richness in immune-related components such as human milk, human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), milk proteins, and lipids, breast milk can be considered the first functional food that humans encounter in their lifetime.

Exposure of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis to Milk Oligosaccharides Increases Adhesion to Epithelial Cells and Induces a Substantial Transcriptional Response. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In this study, we tested the hypothesis that milk oligosaccharides may contribute not only to selective growth of bifidobacteria, but also to their specific adhesive ability.

Immunological Effects of Human Milk Oligosaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) comprise a group of structurally complex, unconjugated glycans that are highly abundant in human milk. HMOs are minimally digested in the gastrointestinal tract and reach the colon intact, where they shape the ...

Recent advances in the science of human milk oligosaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesBBA Advances
Human colostrum and mature milk contain oligosaccharides (Os), designated as human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). Approximately 200 varieties of HMOs have been characterized.Although HMOs are not utilized as an energy source by infants, they have ...

Microbial Production of Human Milk Oligosaccharides

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex nonnutritive sugars present in human milk. These sugars possess prebiotic, immunomodulatory, and antagonistic properties towards pathogens and therefore are important for the health and well-being of newborn

Current Perspective of Sialylated Milk Oligosaccharides in Mammalian Milk: Implications for Brain and Gut Health of Newborns

open access: yesFoods, 2021
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are the third most abundant solid component after lactose and lipids of breast milk. All mammal milk contains soluble oligosaccharides, including neutral milk oligosaccharides (NMOs) without sialic acid (Sia) moieties ...

Creation of a milk oligosaccharide database, MilkOligoDB, reveals common structural motifs and extensive diversity across mammals

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The carbohydrate fraction of most mammalian milks contains a variety of oligosaccharides that encompass a range of structures and monosaccharide compositions.
