Background Our previous studies revealed that human-milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) have
health benefits for nursing infants and their concentrations change dynamically over 24 mo …

Human milk is abundant in carbohydrates and includes human milk oligosaccharides
(HMOs) and N/O-glycans conjugated to proteins. HMO compositions and concentrations …

Objective HMOs comprise a diverse group of indigestible complex glycans in sialy-(SL) or
fuco-(FL) sylated forms thought to only be found in human milk. HMOs play a beneficial role …

Research on human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) began with the characterisation of their
chemical structures and is now focused on the elucidation of their biological roles …

Background Human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) function as a prebiotic, enhance immune
functions, and support brain development for infants when fed mother's milk. These are …

Oligosaccharides in human milk represent a group of bioactive molecules that have evolved
to be an abundant and diverse component of human milk, even though they have no direct …

Background: Some infants experience excessive weight gain during exclusive
breastfeeding. The cause is unknown, but variation in human milk composition might play a …

Free human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are unique due to their highly complex nature
and important emerging biological and protective functions during early life such as prebiotic …

Milk oligosaccharides (MOs), complex carbohydrates prevalent in human breast milk, play a
vital role in infant nutrition. Serving as prebiotics, they inhibit pathogen adherence, modulate …

Free oligosaccharides are key components of human milk and play multiple roles in the
health of the neonate, by stimulating growth of selected beneficial bacteria in the gut …
