Influence of the Type of Breastfeeding and Human Milk Polyamines on Infant Anthropometric Parameters

Abstract: Feeding choices in the early months of life are key determinants of growth during infancy. Polyamines participate in cell proliferation and differentiation, and it has also been suggested that polyamine metabolism plays a role in adipogenesis. As the main exogenous source of polyamines in the infant is human milk, the aim of this work was to study if the type of breastfeeding received and the polyamine intake from human milk has an influence on infant anthropometric parameters. A cohort of 78 full-term healthy… Show more

“…In animal-derived foods, the content of polyamines is also closely related to their source, processing, and storage conditions . Meat and its products contain high concentrations of spermidine and spermine, especially spermine. , In fresh meat (including beef, chicken, duck, lamb, pork, and rabbit), the content of spermine exceeds 20 mg/kg, while the highest levels are found in the liver, for example, 197 mg/kg in beef liver and 137 mg/kg in chicken liver (Table ). There is no significant difference in the contents of spermidine and spermine between meat and meat products .…”

“…For example, infants that are exclusively breastfed accumulate more fat (both in grams and percentage) during the first four months of life, whereas those that are formula-fed acquire more lean mass and gain weight more rapidly, a tendency associated with a higher risk of developing overweight and obesity later in life [16,[18][19][20][21]. Likewise, differences in growth have also been described between exclusive and partially breastfed infants [18,22,23]. It has been suggested that the unique composition of human milk in terms of nutrients, protein concentration, and qualitative characteristics may explain these differences in growth and the beneficial effects of breastfeeding [21].…”

“…Human milk is nutritionally superior to other liquids and solid foods for infants [ 9 , 10 ]. It is a biological fluid that contains nutritive and non-nutritive components [ 11 , 12 , 13 ] which are essential for optimal growth and development of infants [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. It contains bioactive compounds that help in developing the immune system and intestinal microbiota [ 20 , 21 ], thus providing protection against gastrointestinal, and respiratory infections [ 22 , 23 ] along with allergic diseases [ 24 , 25 , 26 ].…”
