Evidence remains largely preclinical, with growing interest in translational applications for aging, metabolic disorders, and neurodegeneration
IU University of Applied Sciences ClinicalTrials.gov trial NCT06133530 intends to explore if daily 5.5 g human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs)undigestible prebiotics from breast milk that nurture beneficial gut bacteria such as bifidobacteria, increase production of short, chain fatty acids, lower inflammation, and support immunity can mitigate the stresses of Antarctica winter over at Concordia Station (3200 m, ~ 12 months isolation/hypoxia simulating spaceflights immune weakening, glucose issues, bone loss) in a triple, blind randomized parallel study, healthy 18, 65yo adults are given either HMO powder or maltose placebo orally

Discussion Glycogen, the primary reservoir for surplus glucose, facilitates rapid energy mobilization during periods of energy deficit through its highly branched architecture, enabling simultaneous enzymatic cleavage at multiple sites 40,41
[10] Foods found to contain ergothioneine include liver, kidney, black beans, kidney bean, and oat bran, with the highest levels in bolete and oyster mushrooms, especially in Pleurotus citrinopileatus
Host antiviral defense relies on both innate and adaptive immunity, with multiple immune components contributing to the pathogenesis of myocarditis across acute infection, subacute immune responses, and maladaptive cardiac remodeling (45)
