The Geographical Distribution of Lactose Tolerance‐Associated Alleles 13910*T and 13915*G Is Strongly Linked to Male Founder Events in Eurasia

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lactose tolerance (lactase persistence) represents a very progressive human adaptation, the origins of which remain incompletely understood. This study aims to examine the geographical distribution of the two alleles associated with lactose tolerance in Eurasia (13910*T and 13915*G) in relation to the main Y haplogroups and autosomal ancestry ...

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.

Dairy Intake and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Iranian Older Adults: Insights From the Baseline Phase of the Birjand Longitudinal Aging Study

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
Among 1348 Iranian adults aged ≥ 60 years in the BLAS baseline, total dairy intake showed no clear association with prevalent T2DM (adjusted OR: 1.42, p = 0.05). Higher yogurt (OR: 1.48–1.54) and cheese (OR: 1.44) intakes were linked to greater odds, whereas milk was not.

Enhanced Bioactivity of Puerariae Radix‐ Hovenia Seed Extracts Through Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Co‐Fermentation: Impact on Alcoholic Liver Injury and Macrophage Polarization

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Puerariae Radix and Hovenia Seed were co‐fermented with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei to produce PHF. In a mouse model of alcohol‐induced liver injury, PHF intervention alleviated liver damage. The underlying mechanism may be related to the regulation of macrophage polarization.

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 Conquest of Milk: The Rise of Lactase Persistence and the Fall of Scandinavian Hunter-Gatherers [PDF]

, 2022
Over half of the global human population suffers from lactase nonpersistence, a condition marked by losing the ability to digest lactose after infancy. However, a minority of the global population, primarily located in Central and Northern Europe, has a ...
