Carrie-Ellen Briere has been a clinical nurse in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for many years, and she has been passionate about the cells in breast milk for many years
.
The Assistant Professor of Nursing at the University of Massachusetts Amherst is studying whether it can prove that fresh breast milk is more beneficial for infants in the NICU, rather than from mothers who have been refrigerated or frozen.
Breast milk
.
She is also advancing a study that shows that in animal models, breast cells can work like stem cells, turning into functional cells in organs such as the liver and brain
In order to conduct laboratory research under the guidance of a team of senior professors at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Brielle obtained the National Institute of Health's and Human Development (National Institute of Health's National Institute of Health and Human Development) from the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Child Health and Human Development) awarded a five-year career development grant worth $730,000
.
Brielle said: "The typical newborn breastfeeds directly on the breast, so the milk they get is natural
.
" "When the baby is in the neonatal intensive care unit, mothers usually need to pump milk, and then we will It is refrigerated or frozen, because not all premature or sick babies can eat it immediately, so we save it for later use
"We know that breast milk is protective and beneficial for babies in the neonatal intensive care unit and after delivery, but we are not sure how breast milk storage affects the different components of breast milk we give to babies, and whether it will take away some beneficial properties
.
"
Brielle will use fresh, refrigerated and frozen breast milk to conduct experiments and compare their effects on the intestinal cells introduced into the infected laboratory
.
She said: "We hope to give priority to the use of fresh milk in the neonatal intensive care unit, but there are many obstacles in this regard
She said one way to achieve this is to coordinate the time of family visits and feeding time
.
In related research, Brielle will design a new animal model study to test how specific breast milk cells eventually move from the intestine to the functional cells of other organs
.
She pointed out that this may have a major impact on premature babies with hypoplastic organs
Brielle said: "Studies have shown that when milk is ingested in an animal model, the cells in the milk are not only swallowed and wander around in the intestines
.
" "In fact, they are found in the various organs of mouse pups.
