The infant's gut microbiome is generally rich in the Bifidobacterium genus. The mother's milk
contains natural prebiotics, called human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), as the third most …

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a unique class of non-digestible carbohydrates
present in the mother milk, which play a key role in the development of infant gut microbiota …

Human milk contains an unexpected abundance and diversity of complex oligosaccharides
apparently indigestible by the developing infant and instead targeted to its cognate …

The bifidogenic effect of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) has long been known, yet the
precise mechanism underlying it remains unresolved. Recent studies show that some …

As the sole nutrition provided to infants, bioactive molecules dissolved in milk influence the
development of our gut microbiota. Accordingly, human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are …

The important roles played by human milk oligosaccharides (HMOS), the third major
component of human milk, in the health of breast-fed infants have been increasingly …

The human gut microbiota established during infancy has persistent effects on health. In
vitro studies have suggested that human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) in breast milk …

The infant intestinal microbiota is often colonized by two subspecies of Bifidobacterium
longum: subsp. infantis (B. infantis) and subsp. longum (B. longum). Competitive growth of B …
