...Valentina De Cosmi; Alessandra Mazzocchi; Stefano Turolo; Marie Louise Syren; Gregorio P. Milani; Carlo Agostoni Background: Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) can actively affect the maintenance and optimal functioning of immune cells. The metabolites of both omega-3 and omega-6 play...

...Dorothée Chabas Background: A healthy immune system is a subtle orchestration of the innate and adaptive immune systems that efficiently detect and process foreign antigens while tolerating the self. The influence of hypertonicity on the immune system is poorly understood [1–16]. Summary: In vitro...

... components of this immune system have rarely been acknowledged. Summary: The scientists who made many fundamental immunological discoveries concerning the immune system in human milk include Alfred François Donné, Paul Ehrlich, Lars Å. Hanson, and Jules Bordet. Based upon their discoveries, a wealth...

...Sharon M. Donovan; Sarah S. Comstock The immune system of the infant is functionally immature and naïve. Human milk contains bioactive proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates that protect the newborn and stimulate innate and adaptive immune development. This review will focus on the role human milk...
