Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) in human milk regulate the immune system, support intestinal maturation, and prevent gut pathogens. The structural complexity and low abundance of GSLs limits their systematic analysis. Here, we coupled the use of monosialoganglioside 1–2-amino-N-(2-aminoethyl) benzamide (GM1-AEAB) derivatives as internal standards with HILIC-MS/MS to qualitatively and quantitatively compare GSLs in human, bovine, and goat milk. One neutral glycosphingolipid (GB) and 33 gangliosides were found in human milk, of which 22 were newly detected and three were fucosylated. Five GB and 26 gangliosides were identified in bovine milk , of which 21 were newly discovered. Four GB and 33 gangliosides were detected in goat milk, 23 of them newly reported. GM1 was the main GSL in human milk; whereas disialoganglioside 3 (GD3) and monosialogangloside 3 (GM3) were dominant in bovine and goat milk, respectively; N -acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) was detected in >88 % of GSLs in bovine and goat milk. N -hydroxyacetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc)-modified GSLs were 3.5 times more abundant in goat than in bovine milk; whereas GSLs modified with both Neu5Ac and Neu5Gc were 3 times more abundant in bovine than in goat milk. Given the health benefits of different GSLs, these results will facilitate the development of custom-designed human milk-based infant formula.

We compared phospholipids (PLs) content, their molecular species, and milk fat globules size and microstructure in the milk of five mammalian species, including human, cow, goat, yak, and donkey. The absolute quantification of major PLs was determined using 31 P NMR and their fatty acid composition with GC. The molecular species of PLs were analysed using LC-MS where a total of 9 PL species, including one sphingomyelin (SM), six glycerophospholipid (GPL), and two lysoglycerophospholipids (lyso-GPLs), were identified. PLs profile shows an obvious difference among the species, with human milk showing higher SM content and more unsaturated fatty acyls than other mammalian milk. The mammalian milk show a similar core-membrane lipid structure but obvious different size distribution. These data provide a basis for better construction of infant formulas to provide PLs requirements and a similar milk fat globule structure for infants.

Rapeseed oil has a similar oleic acid/linoleic acid ratio to human milk fat (HMF). However, it can hardly be used for human milk fat substitute (HMFS) synthesis due to high erucic acid content. In this study, Candida cylindracea lipase (CCL) was found to strongly discriminate against erucic acid. Free fatty acids containing low erucic acid and high oleic acid and linoleic acid were prepared from rapeseed oil hydrolysis catalyzed by CCL. The erucic acid content was only 1.58% (initial 8.70%), when the degree of hydrolysis reached 79.58%. The free fatty acids were used as acyl-donors in the acidolysis catalyzed by Novozym 40086. Considering acyl incorporation and migration, the optimum conditions were 1:8 (tripalmitin to acyl-donors), 40 °C and 2 h. The erucic acid content dropped to 0.97% in the HMFS. According to the Q-TOF-MS analysis, the HMFS was rich in 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoyl-glycerol (18.20%) and 1-oleoyl-2-palmitoyl-3-linoleoyl-glycerol (17.96%), which was similar to HMF.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a devastating infant disease characterized by severe intestinal necrosis, its pathogenesis is poorly understood, but appears to be multifactorial and highly associated with immaturity of gastrointestinal tract and immature innate-immune system. Breast-milk is effective strategy to protect infants against NEC. This study is using a NEC rat model to investigate the pathological mechanism of NEC involved intestinal-damages, and the therapeutic mechanism of sialylated human milk oligosaccharides (SHMOs) on NEC rats; also using cell model to investigate the effects of SHMOs on colon-epithelial cells (Caco-2) in-vitro . Extraction and characterization of SHMOs from breast milk, establishment of a NEC rat model, histopathological analysis and mast cell accounting of the terminal ileum were taken; The levels of DPPI, TLR4, IL-6, TNF-α, MMP-2/9 and glutathione were measured using various methods. Caco-2 cells were pre-treated with SHMOs and cultured with LPS, histamine, chymase or DPPI, cell viabilities and mitochondrial membrane potential were examined; flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle. The accumulation of mast cells was found in the ileum of NEC rats, but prohibited by SHMOs treatment; the increased levels of TLR4, DPPI, IL-6, TNF-α, MMP-2/9 in NEC ileum were suppressed by SHMOs in-vivo . SHMOs prevented Caco-2 cells from LPS, histamine, chymase induced damages by surviving cell viability, regulating G0/G1 and S phase in cell cycles, and increasing mitochondrial membrane potential. These findings provide a new insight into the pharmacological mechanism of SHMOs treatment for NEC and suggest that SHMOs needs well attention for therapeutic aims.

Fatty acids content in walnut oil was investigated and compared with human milk, infant formula (IF) and animal milk (AM), then subjected to in-vitro digestion. Walnut oil (80.04 mg/g) and Human milk (73.11 mg/g) were comprised of unsaturated fatty acids , while AM (52.23 mg/g) and IF (40.50 mg/g) were significantly lower in unsaturated fatty acids. Confocal micrographs and particle size showed complete digestion of walnut oil-based infant formula (IFW) than AM and IF. Total fatty acid released during in-vitro digestion in different samples was IFW (2563.26 μmol/g fat), HM (2420.38 μmol/g fat), AM (1863.70 μmol/g), and in IF (3001.20 μmol/g). In IFW and HM, C18:2n6c was the highest single fatty acid released, with 47% and 40%, respectively, which was substantially different from AM and IF. Our research findings might help design an infant formula closer to human milk.

We compared phospholipids (PLs), PL fatty acid (FA) composition, and milk fat globule size and structure in human milk (n = 120) from mothers of full-term and preterm infants during lactation (colostrum, transition, 1 mo, 2 mo, and 3 mo) and 8 brands of infant formulas. The absolute quantification of PLs was analyzed using 31P NMR spectroscopy. Sphingomyelin was the dominant PLs (35.01 ± 3.31%) in human milk, whereas phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were the dominant PLs in infant formulas. The PL content in preterm milk increased during lactation, whereas that in term milk remained stable. Saturated FAs (mainly 16:0 and 18:0) were the most abundant (>60%) PL FA in both preterm and term milk and increased throughout lactation. The mean diameter of milk fat globules in infant formulas was much smaller than that found in human milk (200 nm vs 5.63 μm). Significant differences were observed between human milk and infant formulas with regard to PLs, suggesting that more research is needed to mimic the PL profile in infant formulas.

Herein, the oleogelation of human milk mimic oil (HMMO) was carried out with beeswax (BW). The physiochemical properties [microstructure, oil holding capacity, X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and rheology] were investigated. The increased addition of BW led to larger crystal sizes and denser internal networks in the oleogel, further improving the thermal behavior, structural strength, and viscosity performance of BW oleogel samples. With the cost-effective benefit of forming the desired internal network structure, 5% BW was selected for oleogel emulsion preparation with varying whey protein isolate addition levels (1, 5, 10, and 15%). The oleogel emulsions showed better storage and emulsifying stability than the conventional ones without significant changes in droplet size. The oleogelation by BW in the oil phase also gave more robust and viscous textures to the HMMO-based emulsion. To sum up, this study supported the advantages of oleogelation by BW in optimizing the physiochemical properties of HMMO and its emulsion, which promotes more promising applications in food, medicine, and cosmetics.

Diseases caused by viruses, such as monkeypox virus (MPXV) and human papillomavirus (HPV), pose serious threats to human health and safety. Although numerous strategies have been constructed for detecting MPXV and HPV DNA, most methods require either laborious procedures or complicated instruments involving skilled professionals. In this research, a CRISPR-Cas12a-mediated colorimetric detection platform for MPXV and HPV sensing was constructed for the first time by applying probe DNA to reprogram the catalytic properties of molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (MoS 2 QDs). In the presence of MPXV or HPV targets, the CRISPR-Cas12a trans -cleavage activity is effectively motivated to decompose the probe DNA, leading to the suppression of enzymatic activity DNA enhancer adsorbed on MoS 2 QDs, resulting in greatly decreased catalytic behaviors. The MoS 2 QDs-DNA nanohybrids displayed prominent specificity and sensitivity, with detection limits at subpicomolar levels, as well as excellent stability and accuracy for determining MPXV and HPV DNA in human sera biosamples. Furthermore, the proposed colorimetric biosensing approach can be ensembled with a smartphone platform, allowing visible analysis of DNA targets. Taken together, this colorimetric strategy offers a novel diagnosis method for MPXV and HPV DNA detection, particularly favorable for highly endemic developing countries with restricted medical and instrumental support.

Human milk oligosaccharides are complex carbohydrates with multibiofunctional health benefits to newborns. Human milk free oligosaccharides (HMOs) are well characterized. However, changes in the N/O-glycome during lactation are poorly reported. Herein, we qualitatively and quantitatively investigated N/O-glycome profiles and their alteration in human milk at different lactation stages. N-Glycans were mainly fucosylated and nonsialylated, nonfucosylated throughout lactation. O-Glycans mainly consisted of sialylated and nonsialylated, nonfucosylated in colostrum and transitional milk, and fucosylated and nonfucosylated, nonsialylated in mature milk. Fucosylated and sialylated N-glycans gradually decreased and increased, respectively, as lactation progressed; O-glycans showed the reverse. Interestingly, changes in HMO abundance decreased during lactation, complementing HMG N/O-glycome changes. In conclusion, temporal HMG glycosylation changes provide the groundwork for developing infant formula that is closer to breast milk at different lactation stages.

Tripalmitin-enriched triacylglycerols were concentrated from palm stearin by acetone fractionation and as the substrate reacted with a mixture of equimolar quantities of fatty acids (C8:0–C18:3). The incorporation degree and acyl migration level of the fatty acids and acylglycerols composition were investigated, providing helpful information for the production of human milk fat substitutes. Higher incorporation degrees of the fatty acids were obtained with lipase PS IM, Lipozyme TL IM, and Lipozyme RM IM followed by porcine pancreatic lipase and Novozym 435-catalyzed acidolysis. During reactions catalyzed by Lipozyme TL IM, Lipozyme RM IM, and lipase PS IM, incorporation degrees of C12:0, C14:0, C18:1, and C18:2 were higher than those of other fatty acids at operated variables (molar ratio, temperature, and time), and the triacylglycerols content reached the highest (82.09%) via Lipozyme RM IM-catalyzed acidolysis. On the basis of significantly different levels of acyl migration to the sn-2 position, lipases were in the order of lipase PS IM < Lipozyme TL IM < Lipozyme RM IM.

The functional role of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) is closely associated with their type, composition, and structure. However, a detailed analysis of HMOs is difficult because neutral oligosaccharides (NHMOs) are mixed with sialylated oligosaccharides (SHMOs) in milk. Here, NHMOs were separated from SHMOs by DEAE-52 anion chromatography, and lactose was removed by graphite carbon solid-phase extraction. Lactose-free NHMOs were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) based on Girard’s reagent P on-target derivatization (GPOD), and SHMOs were analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS following selective sialic acid derivatization and GPOD. Sixty-four oligosaccharides were detected: 36 NHMOs, of which 28 were fucosylated, and 28 SHMOs, of which 8 with α-2,3-linked monosialic acid, 2 with α-2,3-linked disialic acid, 10 with α-2,6-linked monosialic acid, 2 with α-2,6-linked disialic acid, and 5 with both α-2,3- and α-2,6-linked disialic acid. These findings provide the groundwork for further characterization of the structure and activity of HMOs.

The nutritional profile of human milk varies significantly during storage, and the impact of storage conditions on phospholipid (PL) composition and fat globule structure is not well studied. This study aimed to investigate the changes in human milk PL composition and human milk fat globule (HMFG) structure during long-term storage, at 4 °C, −20 °C and −80 °C for 30, 60, 90 and 120 days. The PLs in human milk were quantified using 31 P NMR, and the microstructure of HMFG was observed using multi microscopes. After 120 days of storage, the total PLs decreased from 19.1 μmol/100 mL milk to 4.8 μmol/100 mL, 8.2 μmol/100 mL and 10.3 μmol/100 mL at 4 °C, −20 °C and −80 °C, respectively. Glycerophospholipid showed a higher lipolysis rate than sphingomyelin . PLs on milk fat globule membranes degraded during storage, which caused the release of internal triacylglycerols and the flocculation of fat globules at the broken membrane.
