摘要:
The present invention relates to a method to increase the absorption by a human infant of at least one unsaturated fatty acid, said method comprising the enteral administration to said infant of recombinant human bile-salt-stimulated lipase (rhBSSL). In another aspect the invention also relates to a method to improve the visual and/or cognitive development of a human infant, said method comprising the enteral administration to said infant of rhBSSL. Such methods have particular utility for preterm human infants, particular those in medical need of increasing their absorption of or availability to such unsaturated fatty acids. In further aspects, the invention relates to kits, packaged-pharmaceutical-products, recombinant human bile-salt-stimulated lipase and pharmaceutical compositions, in each case useful for increasing the absorption by a human infant of at least one unsaturated fatty acid, or for increasing the visual and/or cognitive development of a human infant.

The present invention relates to a method to increase the growth velocity of a human infant, said method comprising the enteral administration to said infant of recombinant human bile-salt-stimulated lipase (rhBSSL). Such method has particular utility for underweight or preterm human infants, particular those in medical need of increasing their growth velocity. The invention also relates to compositions, including infant feeds, kits, packaged-pharmaceutical-products and pharmaceutical compositions, and also to methods to prepare infant feeds. In another aspect, the present invention relates to methods to: (X) protect the small bowel mucosa of a human infant from damage; to (Y) protect an immature intestinal epithelium of a human infant from the deleterious effects of incompletely digested and/or excess fat and/or lipid; and/or to (Z) limit accumulation of incompletely digested and/or excess fat and/or lipid in the ileum of a human infant; said methods in each case comprising the step of enteral administration of rhBSSL.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a DNA sequence encoding the human milk protein .beta.-casein or an analogue or variant thereof which has either the calcium binding activity of human .beta.-casein, or opioid activity, or angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, or a combination of any two or three of these activities. The DNA sequence may optionally contain one or more intron sequences and permissive RNA splice signals. The DNA sequence is used in the production of recombinant human .beta.-casein, advantageously by means of production in transgenic non-human mammals such as bovine species. In one embodiment, the DNA sequence is inserted into a milk protein gene of a mammal such as a whey acidic protein (WAP) gene. The main use of the recombinant human .beta.-casein is as a constituent of infant formulae. It is contemplated that the recombinant human .beta.-casein provides a substantial improvement of the nutritional and biological value of the formulae in that a closer similarity to human milk is obtained.

The invention also relates to a method for producing a transgenic non-human mammal comprising injecting an expression system as defined above and optionally a further DNA encoding &bgr;-casein or an analog, variant or subsequence thereof into a fertilized egg or a cell of an embryo of a mammal so as to incorporate the expression system into the germline of the mammal and developing the resulting injected fertilized egg or embryo into an adult female mammal. In one embodiment, the endogenous polypeptide expressing capability of the mammal is destroyed and/or replaced with the expression system defined above. The invention further relates to a transgenic non-human mammal such as a mouse, rat, rabbit, goat, sheep, pig, lama, camel or bovine species whose germ cells a somatic cells contain a DNA sequence as defined above as a result of chromosomal incorporation into the non-human mammalian genome, or into the genome of an ancestor of said non-human mammal.
