Association between functional lactase variants and a high abundance of Bifidobacterium in the gut of healthy Japanese people. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Previous studies have shown that Japanese people exhibit a higher abundance of Bifidobacterium compared to people from other countries. Among the possible factors affecting the gut microbiota composition, an association of functional lactase gene ...

Association of the Lactase Persistence Haplotype Block With Disease Risk in Populations of European Descent

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Among people of European descent, the ability to digest lactose into adulthood arose via strong positive selection of a highly advantageous allele encompassing the lactase gene. Lactose-tolerant and intolerant individuals may have different disease risks

Production of HPMC-films for lactase administration [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2020
The present work aimed to develop and characterize HPMC-films (HFs) based on hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) with the addition of lactase for later application in the reduction of lactose in whole milk. The HFs were produced by the casting technique,

Lactose Intolerance: Common Misunderstandings [PDF]

, 2019
Lactose intolerance primarily refers to a syndrome having different symptoms upon the consumption of foods containing lactose. It is one of the most common form of food intolerance and occurs when lactase activity is reduced in the brush border of the ...

PERCC1‐associated enteropathy: Diagnostic challenges and enteral autonomy achieved with teduglutide

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CODE) are rare inherited disorders characterized by early‐onset intractable diarrhea. Though progress has been made in elucidating the genetic basis of CODE, much remains to be discovered. Another challenge is the lack of curative therapies—treatment is primarily supportive including enteral and ...

Immobilization of lactase to Perloza cellulose resins : a thesis was presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry at Massey University [PDF]

, 2000
A bead cellulose matrix, Perloza, was chemically modified by two attachment chemistries to prepare inexpensive resins for immobilization of lactase. A commercial product, the base-activated matrix Eupergit C was studied for comparison.

Upcycling orange by‐product: phenolic bioaccessibility and technological features of jelly candies enriched with hydroalcoholic and enzymatic extracts

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Phenolic extracts are recognized for their health‐promoting properties, although some physicochemical characteristics limit their food applications. The present study aimed to valorize orange juice by‐products through enzymatic and hydroalcoholic extraction to obtain flavonoid ingredients and to evaluate their application in pectin ...

Association of the rs4988235 in the lactase gene with obesity and its modulation by dairy products in a Mediterranean population [PDF]

, 2011
The -13910C>T polymorphism (rs4988235) upstream from the lactase (LCT) gene, strongly associated with lactase persistence (LP) in Europeans, is emerging as a new candidate for obesity. We aimed to analyze the association of this polymorphism with obesity-

Changing genes; losing lactase [PDF]

Gut, 2003
Transcriptional regulation of the lactase-phlorizin hydrolase ( LPH ) gene by polymorphisms is associated with persistence of high levels of intestinal lactase activity or non-persistence Lactase-phlorizin hydrolase ( LPH ), an intestinal microvillus membrane enzyme that hydrolyses lactose, is a critical enzyme for neonatal nutrition.
