Role of milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) in modulating gene expression in humans

The aim of this study was to investigate if milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) enclosing the dairy fat influence peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) gene expression. This study was a 8-week single-blind, randomized, controlled isocaloric trial with two parallel groups including overweight (mean BMI: 28) adult women (n=30). All subjects consumed 40 g dairy fat per day either as cream (MFGM diet) or as butter oil (control diet).
