This study identifies how maternal diet and genetics influence the human milk metabolome, showing diet explains the most variation and uncovering genetic associations with specific metabolites.

This study shows that maternal exercise during lactation improves milk fatty acid composition and enhances offspring energy expenditure in obese dams.

The paper identifies genetic loci influencing milk gene expression and links these to infant gut microbiome composition in breastfeeding mothers.

The paper investigates the association between human cytomegalovirus in breast milk and milk composition, infant gut microbiome, and infant growth.
