Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are the most abundant solid component of human milk after lactose and lipids. Approximately 80% of mothers produce the HMO 2' fucosylactose (2'FL). In this presentation we will review clinical studies exploring the immune benefit of 2'FL and discuss pre-clinical evidence of 2'FL on food allergy and potential mechanisms of action. We will describe the possible role of 2'FL HMO in enhancing oral tolerance.
Learning objectives:
- To learn about HMOs, with a particular focus on 2'FL
- To learn about clinical studies supporting HMOs in immune support
- To explore how 2'FL HMO may be relevant for nutritional management of infants with food allergy
- To learn about the pre-clinical evidence of 2'FL effects on food allergy
- To understand the effects of 2'FL on key elements of the immune response and their potential mechanisms of action
