“…In this study, selenium treatment could enhance the levels of unsaturated fatty acids of the n-6 series, especially long chain fatty acids, such as 18:2(n-6) and 20:4(n-6). These results are partially in agreement with a study on human breast milk, which claimed that the content of polyunsaturated fatty acids especially LA could be significantly increased by Se-enriched diets, while saturated fatty acids content decreased [17].…”

The effect of selenium (Se) treatment on the content of intracellular polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) was investigated. Selenium treatment could effectively increase the yields of arachidonic acid (AA) and linoleic acid (LA). When AA-producing Diasporangium jonesianum recombinant strain D-A1 was cultured in a medium containing 90 lg mL -1 Se, the growth of D. jonesianum recombinant strain D-A1 was constrained, but the content of AA in the total fatty acids reached 9.3%, 1.7-fold higher than the control. The content of LA was also increased from 25.9 to 37.7%. Under various culture conditions, Se treatment (90 lg mL -1 ) was generally beneficial to the yields of LA and AA. However, there was no significant increase in the contents of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and c-linolenic acid. Therefore, the use of Se is advantageous for regulating the content of intracellular PUFA in D. jonesianum recombinant strain D-A1, and could be good enhancer in the yields of AA and LA.

Background This study aims to systematically review the effects of maternal vitamin and/or mineral supplementation on the content of breast milk. Methods We systematically searched electronic databases including Medline via PubMed, Scopus and ISI Web of Science till May 24, 2018. The following terms were used systematically in all mentioned databases: (“human milk” OR “breast milk” OR “breast milk composition” OR “human breast milk composition” OR “composition breast milk” OR “mother milk” OR “human breast milk” OR “maternal milk”) AND (“vitamin a” OR “retinol” OR “retinal” OR “retinoic acid” OR “beta-carotene” OR “beta carotene” OR “ascorbic acid” OR “l-ascorbic acid” OR “l ascorbic acid” OR “vitamin c” OR “vitamin d” OR “cholecalciferol” OR “ergocalciferol” OR “calciferol” OR “vitamin e” OR “tocopherol” OR “tocotrienol” OR “alpha-tocopherol” OR “alpha tocopherol” OR “α-tocopherol” OR “α tocopherol” OR “vitamin k” OR “vitamin b” OR “vitamin b complex” OR “zinc” OR “iron” OR “copper” Or “selenium” OR “manganese” OR “magnesium”) and we searched Medline via Medical subject Headings (MeSH) terms. We searched Google Scholar for to increase the sensitivity of our search. The search was conducted on human studies, but it was not limited to the title and abstract. Methodological quality and risk of bias of included studies were evaluated by Jadad scale and Cochrane risk of bias tools, respectively. Results This review included papers on three minerals (zinc, iron, selenium) and 6 vitamins (vitamin A, B, D, C, E and K) in addition to multi-vitamin supplements. Although studies had different designs, e.g. not using random allocation and/or blinding, our findings suggest that maternal use of some dietary supplements, including vitamin A, D, vitamin B1, B2 and vitamin C might be reflected in human milk. Vitamin supplements had agreater effect on breast milk composition compared to minerals. Higher doses of supplements showed higher effects and they were reflected more in colostrum than in the mature milk. Conclusion Maternal dietary vitamin and/or mineral supplementation, particularly fat- soluble vitamins, vitamin B1, B2 and C might be reflected in the breast milk composition. No difference was found between mega dose and single dose administration of minerals.

“…While the Se supplementation increased the percentage of PUFA in milk of dairy cows, it tended to decrease the percentage of SFA ( P = 0.11). Dodge et al 16 reported that the concentration of milk PUFA increased 41% and concentration of milk SFA decreased 11% in human receiving tablets as L ‐selenomethionine. Cabré et al 32 reported that the positive correlation between serum selenium concentration and percentages of essential fatty acids and ω‐6 long‐chain PUFA was due to the antioxidant effect of Se.…”

“…Furthermore, some studies have shown that the fatty acid composition of egg and poultry muscle may be influenced by dietary Se 14, 15. Dodge et al 16 reported that Se supplementation significantly increased the concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and decreased the concentration of saturated fatty acids (SFA) in human milk. However, there is little literature showing that the fatty acid composition in bovine milk may be influenced by dietary Se.…”
