Probiotic metabolism of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and prebiotics
Human milk contains a high concentration of complex oligosaccharides (HMOs) that are believed to confer physiological benefits to infants such as immunomodulation and prevention of pathogen attachment. In addition, it has been postulated that HMOs serve as prebiotics by promoting the growth of …

Metabolism of host-derived carbohydrates by Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003
… a nine-carbon monosaccharide, which is found in human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and the mucin glycoprotein. B. breve UCC2003 was also shown to cross-feed on sialic acid released from 3’ sialyllactose, a prominent HMO, by the extracellular sialidase activity of Bifidobacterium bifidum PRL2010. …

Production of a functional human milk oligosaccharide, 2'-fucosyllactose, using microbial cell factories
Human breast milk is the gold standard for infant nutrition. In human milk, the oligosaccharides may protect babies by acting as decoy receptors for pathogens. Also, human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) enhance the proliferation of probiotics to strengthen the host immune system. Among HMOs, …

Unravelling the impact of early-life nutrition on microbiota-gut-brain axis signalling
… postnatal early-life dietary intervention with human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and prebiotics was investigated on its ability to reverse the effects of antibiotic-induced microbiota depletion on brain transcriptome and behaviour in juvenile male mice. The combination of HMOs with prebiotics …

Metabolism of human milk oligosaccharides by infant-associated bifidobacteria
… occasionally insect gastrointestinal tracts. In humans, bifidobacteria are typically highly abundant in the intestinal microbiota of healthy breastfed infants, in particular a small number of infant-associated species, including Bifidobacterium breve, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis, …

Maternal stress signature and infant neurodevelopment: determining the beneficial effects of human milk oligosaccharides - an in vitro study
Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs), the third most abundant solid component of breast milk, are becoming increasingly popular as their role in human health is further understood. In breastfed infants, HMOs play roles in many essential functions, including shaping the gut microbiota, inhibiting …

Bifidobacterial interactions with human milk oligosaccharides and their combined potential for the advancement of infant nutrition
… of this research was to investigate the role of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) in shaping the infant gut microbiota and in supporting immune health. HMOs are complex carbohydrates found at high concentrations in human breast milk, where they confer various critical functions. Despite their …

The role of probiotics, prebiotics, and human milk oligosaccharides in infant formulae
… recommendation and only 44% of infants receive human milk to any extent at six months of age (Gartner et al., 2005; Li et al., 2005; Eidelman et al., 2012). Nearly 40% of infants receive formula as their sole source of nutrition by one month of age (Li et al., 2005). Probiotics and/or prebiotics …
