Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human Milk (HM) is a biological fluid representing the first nutrient for newborns. It directly impacts the development of the infant's immune system. In this concern, specific microRNAs (miRNAs) such as hsa-miR-21, hsa-miR-181a, hsa-miR-150 and hsa-miR-223 are known to be involved in the innate and acquired immune response. OBJECTIVE: Herein, these miRNAs were evaluated in frozen and pasteurized...
