Adequate folate intake is required in preterm infants for rapid growth and development, but there is little evidence to back recommendations. We aimed to assess folate status in preterm infants at discharge and in early infancy, according to exposure to folate sources, particularly in those exclusively/predominantly breastfed. A prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study was conducted in the UK, involving 45 preterm infants <33 weeks' gestational age (GA) exclusively/predominantly fed human milk when approaching NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) discharge.

Design: Cross-sectional, retrospective study.
Setting: University training room/clinic visits.
The feature with Gene ID 108083276 was determined to be an ortholog of absent, small, or homeotic discs 1 ( ). Two isoforms, ash1-PB and ash1-PC, were constructed on the Muller D element using the GEP annotation protocol. The second coding exon of includes an insertion translated into 18 additional amino acids compared to the protein and is supported by RNA-Seq coverage, the lack of splice junction predictions, and multiple gene predictors.

- * The protein Cochlin, which is essential for healthy tendon structure, decreases in tendons during aging and when specific cells are depleted, leading to significant changes in collagen organization and tendon mechanics.
- * Although Cochlin loss affects tendon structure and properties, it does not hinder the healing process, indicating that maintaining Cochlin levels could be key for preserving tendon health throughout life.
