AI Technical Summary
Current methods for producing human milk are limited by the availability of human donors, regulatory constraints, and the inability of existing infant formulas to replicate the complex components of human breast milk, making it difficult to provide a sustainable and customized milk substitute.
A method involving the culture and differentiation of mammalian induced pluripotent stem cells (miPSCs) in retinoic acid (RA) to generate embryoid bodies (EBs), which are then grown to produce mammary gland cells and secrete mammalian milk-like products, including human milk-like products, tailored to specific nutritional needs.
This method enables the production of human milk-like products with similar components to breast milk, offering a sustainable and customizable alternative that can be used as a substitute or supplement, addressing the limitations of current infant formulas and donor milk availability.
