Lack of Association between LCT_rs140433552*CA>del Indel Polymorphism and Lactose Intolerance in a Southern Brazilian Population

Lifestyle Genomics, 2020
Background/Aims: Polymorphisms in the enhancer of the lactase gene (LCT) are strongly associated with lactase persistence, but not always predictive of the phenotype.

High frequency of lactose intolerance in a prehistoric hunter-gatherer population in northern Europe

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Genes and culture are believed to interact, but it has been difficult to find direct evidence for the process. One candidate example that has been put forward is lactase persistence in adulthood, i.e. the ability to continue digesting the milk

The association between adult-type hypolactasia and symptoms of functional dyspepsia

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2018
Functional dyspepsia and lactose intolerance (adult-type hypolactasia, ATH) are common conditions that may coexist or even be confounded. Their clinical presentation can be similar, however, lactose intolerance does not form part of the diagnostic ...

Evolutionary GEM: Evolution of Lactase Persistence

Western Undergraduate Research Journal: Health and Natural Sciences, 2017
Though humans are known to lose lactase ability post-weaning, some people maintain lactase production into adulthood, a condition known as lactase persistence. Global distribution patterns of lactase persistency are inconsistent; the condition is much more prevalent in some populations than others.

EVALUATION OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN C/T-13910 POLYMORPHISM GENOTYPING RESULTS AND LACTOSE TOLERANCE TEST RESULTS: A RETROSPECTIVE POPULATION-BASED STUDY IN BRAZIL [PDF]

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia
Background: Lactose tolerant test (LTT) is the most broadly used diagnostic test for lactose intolerance in Brazil, is an indirect, minimally invasive and a low-cost test that is widely available in primary care and useful in clinical practice.
