Breastmilk stem cell transfer from mother to neonatal organs (216.4)
2014-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Human breastmilk contains stem cells that express pluripotency genes and differentiate in culture to cells from all three germ layers. The fate of these stem cells in the breastfed infant is unknown. We used a mouse model to test tissue distribution and latency of milk stem cells in the neonate. Wild‐type pups were cross‐fostered by mothers that ubiquitously express TdTomato (TdT). Live imaging of organs from TdT‐...
