Comparative transcriptomics reveals key differences in the response to milk oligosaccharides of infant gut-associated bifidobacteria. [PDF]
Breast milk enhances the predominance of Bifidobacterium species in the infant gut, probably due to its large concentration of human milk oligosaccharides (HMO). Here we screened infant-gut isolates of Bifidobacterium longum subsp.

Historical Aspects of Human Milk Oligosaccharides [PDF]
This review focuses on important observations regarding infant health around 1900 when breastfeeding was not considered a matter of importance. The discovery of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria and their relevance for health and disease was an important milestone leading to a decrease in infant mortality in the first year of life.

Research Progress in Compositions, Contents and Functions of Oligosaccharides in Breast Milk and Cow’s Milk [PDF]
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), as the third largest solid component of breast milk, have been widely emphasized in recent years due to their important physiological functions. Bovine milk oligosaccharides (BMOs) have similar structures and functions

Synthesis of asymmetrical multiantennary human milk oligosaccharides [PDF]
Significance Human breast milk is rich in a family of structurally diverse unconjugated glycans. These human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) can shape the intestinal microbiome, serve as soluble decoys for receptors of pathogens, and have immune-modulatory properties. Virtually nothing is known about the importance of the molecular complexity of
