Recent and Promising Strategies for Robust, Sustainable, and Cost-Friendly Production of Yogurt With Superior Quality. [PDF]
Compr Rev Food Sci Food SafABSTRACT Yogurt is one of the most technologically mature fermented dairy products on the market, traditionally prepared using the two lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus. Global demand for yogurt continues to rise, driven by consumer interest in healthy, high‐protein diets with as few ...

Dairying, diseases and the evolution of lactase persistence in Europe
Nature, 2022 In European and many African, Middle Eastern and southern Asian populations, lactase persistence (LP) is the most strongly selected monogenic trait to have evolved over the past 10,000 years1.

Lactase deficiency in Russia: multiethnic genetic study
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2023 Lactase persistence—the ability to digest lactose through adulthood—is closely related to evolutionary adaptations and has affected many populations since the beginning of cattle breeding.

Ancient DNA analysis reveals high frequency of European lactase persistence allele (T-13910) in medieval central europe. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Ruminant milk and dairy products are important food resources in many European, African, and Middle Eastern societies. These regions are also associated with derived genetic variants for lactase persistence.

Why Anthropologists Should Study Dogs [PDF]
Evol AnthropolABSTRACT While primates have traditionally been a focus of evolutionary anthropologists, the domestic dog represents a valuable complementary model due to its long shared evolutionary history with humans. The advantages of studying dogs are particularly evident in four key areas: (1) analyzing evolutionary adaptations, (2) understanding humanity's past,

Nutrients, 2020 Lactose intolerance (LI) is characterized by the presence of primarily gastrointestinal clinical signs resulting from colonic fermentation of lactose, the absorption of which is impaired due to a deficiency in the lactase enzyme. These clinical signs can

Ileal Lactase Expression Associates with Lactase Persistence Genotypes
Nutrients, 2021 (1) Background: Lactose digestion depends on persistence genotypes (including rs4988235), the frequency of which exhibits broad geographical variability. However, little is known about the relationship between lactase (LCT) genotypes and intestinal expression of LCT.

The lactase persistence genotype is a protective factor for the metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2014 The Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is defined as a pattern of metabolic disturbances, which include central obesity, insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension.
