Human milk oligosaccharides as prebiotics
Pediatrics 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.

Human milk oligosaccharides: the novel modulator of intestinal microbiota [PDF]
BMB Reports, 2012 Human milk, which nourishes the early infants, is a source ofbioactive components for the infant growth, development andcommensal formulation as well. Human milk oligosaccharide is agroup of complex and diverse glycans that is apparently notabsorbed in ...

Profiles of Human Milk Oligosaccharides and Production of Some Human Milk Oligosaccharides in Transgenic Animals [PDF]
Advances in Nutrition, 2012 During the decade of the 1990s and the first years of the current century, our group embarked on a project to study and synthesize human milk oligosaccharides. This report describes 2 unexpected collateral observations from that endeavor. The first observation was the detection and confirmation of 2 rare neutral human milk oligosaccharides profiles ...

Oligosaccharides of Human Milk
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1969 Abstract A method involving Sephadex gel filtration and paper chromatography is described for the separation and determination of the known oligosaccharides in individual samples of human milk. Using this method, it was found that the four oligosaccharides which contain O -α- l -fucosyl-(1 →∗2)- O -β- d -galactosyl groupings occur in milk from ...

Microbial Production of Human Milk Oligosaccharides
Molecules, 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

Human milk oligosaccharides – the plot thickens [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2008 Human milk is a complex physiological fluid that provides nutrients as well as bioactive factors for the infant(1). A distinctive property of human milk among all other species is its remarkable content and structural diversity of oligosaccharides(2–4).

Immunological Effects of Human Milk Oligosaccharides [PDF]
Frontiers 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
BBA AdvancesHuman 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 ...

Production of functional mimics of human milk oligosaccharides by enzymatic glycosylation of bovine milk oligosaccharides [PDF]
International Dairy Journal, 2019 Consumption of mothers' milk is associated with reduced incidence and severity of enteric infections, leading to reduced morbidity in breastfed infants. Fucosylated and sialylated human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) are important for both direct antimicrobial action - likely via a decoy effect - and indirect antimicrobial action through commensal growth ...
