Impact of milk secretor status on the fecal metabolome and microbiota of breastfed infants [PDF]
Gut Microbes, 2023 Maternal secretor status has been shown to be associated with the presence of specific fucosylated human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), and the impact of maternal secretor status on infant gut microbiota measured through 16s sequencing has previously been

The Importance of Secretor-Status in Norovirus Infection Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation [PDF]
Viruses, 2022 Background. Human secretor-status is a strong susceptibility factor for norovirus infection in immunocompetent people. The predominant norovirus genotype GII.4 almost exclusively infects secretors and is also associated with more severe symptoms. However,

The protective associations of breastfeeding with infant overweight and asthma are not dependent on maternal FUT2 secretor status [PDF]
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023 Breastfeeding supplies infant gut bacteria with human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) as a nutrient source. HMO profiles are influenced by the FUT2 gene, which encodes an enzyme affecting the fucosylation of milk sugars. 20 to 40% of individuals have a “non-
