  • Patent number: 11849747
    Abstract: A nutritional composition, typically an infant enterically administered nutritional composition, that comprises a milk fat globule membrane component, at least one human milk oligosaccharide and one additional component or a plurality of additional components where the additional component or components include DHA, ARA, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and sphingomyelin.
    Type: Grant

    Inventors: Michael Bernard Miklus, Anja Monika Wittke, Pedro Antonio Prieto, Cynthia M. Barber
  • Patent number: 5892070
    Abstract: The invention relates to transgenic non-human mammals characterized in that the genome of said mammals contain at least one heterologous gene encoding for the production of heterologous catalytic entity selected from the group consisting of enzymes and antibodies, and wherein said catalytic entity produces a second heterologous product in the milk of said mammal. Especially useful in the practice of the invention are human glycosyltransferases and transgenic sheep, goats and cows. The heterologous product includes oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. Specifically exemplified, is the production of 2'-fucosyl-lactose in the milk of transgenic mice which contain and express a transgene encoding .alpha.-1,2-fucosyltransferase operatively linked to a mammary gland specific promoter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 10, 1996
    Date of Patent: April 6, 1999
    Assignee: Abbott Laboratories
    Inventors: Pedro Antonio Prieto, David Fletcher Smith, Richard Dale Cummings, John Joseph Kopchick, Pradip Mukerji, Kelley Wilson Moremen, James Michael Pierce
  • Patent number: 5891698
    Abstract: The invention relates to humanized milk. The milk is produced by a non-human transgenic mammal wherein the genome of said transgenic non-human mammal contains at least one heterologous gene encoding for a human catalytic entity and wherein the catalytic entity produces oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates that are present in the milk of said transgenic non-human mammal. An especially useful catalytic entity is human glycosyltransferases which produce oligosaccharides and glyconjugates. Specifically exemplified, is the production of 2'-fucosyl-lactose in the milk of transgenic mice which contain and express a transgene encoding .alpha.-1,2-fucosyltransferase operatively linked to a mammary gland specific promoter. A method of obtaining humanized milk is disclosed.

  • Patent number: 5750176
    Abstract: The invention relates to the milk of a transgenic non-human mammal. The milk is characterized in that it contains heterologous components produced as the secondary gene products of a heterologous gene contained in the genome of the transgenic non-human mammal. The heterologous gene encodes a heterologous catalytic entity such as a human enzyme selected from the group consisting of glycosyltransferases, phosphorylases, hydroxylases, peptidases and sulfotransferases. Especially useful in the practice of the invention are human glycosyltransferases. The desired heterologous components include oligosaccahrides, glycoconjugates. Specifically exemplified, is the production of 2'-fucosyl-lactose in the milk of transgenic mice which contain and express a transgene encoding .alpha.-1,2-fucosyltransferase operatively linked to a mammary gland specific promoter.

  • Patent number: 5712250
    Abstract: An enteral nutritional product containing either bovine .kappa.-casein or human .kappa.-casein at a concentration greater than that found in human or bovine milk and sufficient to inhibit infection of mammalian cells by human rotavirus.
    Type: Grant
