Breast Milk Exosome

This product is an exosomal fraction prepared by ultracentrifugation from breast milk donated by healthy humans through ethically appropriate procedures.The raw breast milk has been confirmed by FDA-approved methods to be free of infection (HIV-1, HCV, HBV by NAT, HBsAg, HCV Ab, HIV 1 and 2 Ab, RPR).

Recently, exosomes have been discovered in the milk of a variety of mammals, including human. It was shown that several exosome markers, such as CD63 and CD81, were also expressed in human breast milk. It has been reported that human breast milk contains many microRNAs, especially those involved in immunity. It was suggested that these exosomal microRNAs might be transferred from mother to infant through breast milk. It has been reported that immunocytes are regulated by exosomes present in human breast milk. It has also been reported that exosomes derived from pig breast milk exhibited a growth-stimulating effect directly upon infant intestinal epithelial cells. Because of these studies, the function and mechanisms of action of exosomes in breast milk have attracted considerable attention.
