Coenzyme Q concentration and total antioxidant capacity of human milk at different stages of lactation in mothers of preterm and full-term infants

Abstract: Coenzyme Q10(CoQ10) in human milk at different stages of maturity in mothers of preterm and full-term infants and its relation to the total antioxidant capacity of milk is described for the first time. Thirty healthy breastfeeding women provided colostrum, transition-milk and mature-milk samples. Coenzyme Q, alpha-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol, fatty acids and the total antioxidant capacity of the milk were analyzed. Coenzyme Q10 was found at higher concentrations for colostrum (0.81+/-0.06 vs. 0.50+/-0.05 mic… Show more

“…Interestingly, breast milk from mothers of full-term infants has been found to have a higher antioxidant capacity than that of mothers of preterm babies. 30 These findings have prompted researchers to focus their attention on antioxidant supplementations in preterm babies by the use of non-enzymatic proteins, such as transferrin and ferritin, antioxidant enzymes or oxidizable molecules, including vitamins, fatty acids or aminoacids, among others, 26,27 for some of which positive results have been published. 31,32 Interestingly, probiotic microorganism could also play a role as antioxidants, since strains displaying this property have been reported 33 and probiotic metabolites able to prevent the production of proinflammatory cytokines induced by oxidative stress have been recently identified.…”

“…The other five studies (Schweigert et al, 2004;Quiles et al, 2006;Romeu-Nadal et al, 2006;SziklaiLaszlo et al, 2009;Antonakou et al, 2011) were conducted in mothers of full-term infants in the EU. In these studies, mean α-tocopherol concentration in human milk, measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ranged from about 3 mg/L to about 25 mg/L (including all stages of lactation).…”

“…Sin embargo, contrariamente a lo que esperábamos, y tras comparar la ingesta de macronutrientes observada en las madres con las ingestas recomendadas, la dieta de las mujeres estudiadas en todos los grupos era desequilibrada en lo que respecta al aporte de estos nutrientes, con un exceso de ingesta de grasas y proteínas en detrimento de la ingesta de hidratos de carbono (Tabla 8 y figura 27) (Bolton & Wooddward, 1994;Astrup & Raben, 1995;Fernández-Vergel et al, 2006;Quiles, 2006;Codoñer-Franch et al, 2013;Varela-Moreiras et al, 2013).…”

“…Este comportamiento es muy similar a los resultados obtenidos en los estudios realizados por Quiles y Codoñer-Franch (Quiles, 2006;Codoñer-Franch et al, 2013). Debemos de tener presente que la grasa poliinsaturada es un componente fundamental de la leche materna (Yahvah, 2015;Delplanque, 2015).…”
