It is possible that maternal obesity entails changes in hormonal components of human colostrum and in the imbalance between Th17 and Treg cells, modifying T lymphocyte homeostasis and thus the plasticity of macrophages that are important regulators of the inflammatory response, impacting in the increased risk of infant infection. However, so far, it is not known how the colostrum consti…
Obesity is an important public health problem. Need special attention in critical phases as it is in pregnancy and infancy.
