Human Milk Oligosaccharide Utilization in Intestinal Bifidobacteria Is Governed by Global Transcriptional Regulator NagR
Biotics & Microbiome Health
Arzamasov A. et al. (2022)
Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis is a prevalent beneficial bacterium that colonizes the human neonatal gut and is uniquely adapted to efficiently use human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) as a carbon and energy source.
Human milk oligosaccharide-sharing by a consortium of infant derived Bifidobacterium species
Biotics & Microbiome Health
Walsh C. et al. (2022)
Bifidobacteria are associated with a host of health benefits and are typically dominant in the gut microbiota of healthy, breast-fed infants. A key adaptation, facilitating the establishment of these species, is their ability to consume particular sugars, known as human milk oligosaccharides (HMO), which are abundantly found in breastmilk.

Microbiota-diet-host interplay during pregnancy: relevance for the maternal-neonatal health MIDIHOP
Mother & Child Health & Nutrition
Collado M. C., CSIC, National Research Council, Spain, 2022
Conception, gestation, and lactation are critical periods for human development. The exposure to unhealthy dietary patterns, excess weight gain and other environmental factors results in a higher risk of pregnancy complications affecting both mothers and infants.

Elucidating mother-infant and bacterial factors related to the early acquisition and intestinal colonization of infants by E. coli and AIEC
Biotics & Microbiome Health
Simpson K., Cornell University, USA, 2022
Mechanistically, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), principally Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are considered a consequence of dysregulated interplay between host genetic-susceptibility and immunity, the enteric microenvironment, and environmental “triggers”, but the specific interactions that lead to IBD are unresolved.
We foster scientific
events
As a hub for scientific communication, the BINC Foundation has mission to foster exchanges and collaboration among key opinion leaders, health care professionals and the parents.
Each year we have the honour to participate, organize and sponsor international scientific conferences, and other events, as well as to host webinars held by key opinion leaders experts in their field.
