Evolution of transcriptional enhancers and animal diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Deciphering the genetic bases that drive animal diversity is one of the major challenges of modern biology. Although four decades ago it was proposed that animal evolution was mainly driven by changes in cis-regulatory DNA elements controlling gene ...

Lactose‐Derived Carbohydrates Induce Sexually Dimorphic Nutritional Programming Effects on Lifespan in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2026.
Early‐life co‐consumption of galactose and glucose (hydrolyzed lactose) programs Drosophila melanogaster lifespan in a sex‐specific manner. Particularly, the co‐consumption of galactose and glucose programs extended lifespan when female flies were challenged by obesogenic diets later in life, and this is concomitant with remodeling of lipid metabolism,

Genetic and cultural adaptations underlie the establishment of dairy pastoralism in the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Domestication and introduction of dairy animals facilitated the permanent human occupation of the Tibetan Plateau. Yet the history of dairy pastoralism in the Tibetan Plateau remains poorly understood.

Causal Effect of Dietary Patterns on Cerebral Small Vessel Disease: A Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
This Mendelian randomization (MR) study reveals causal links between dietary factors and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) neuroimaging markers. Genetically predicted higher polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) levels reduce white matter hyperintensity volume, while monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) intake lowers lobar brain microbleeds (BMB) risk.

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

open access: yesLifestyle 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.

Excellent agreement between genetic and hydrogen breath tests for lactase deficiency and the role of extended symptom assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Clinical manifestations of lactase (LCT) deficiency include intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms. Lactose hydrogen breath test (H2-BT) is considered the gold standard to evaluate LCT deficiency (LD).

Blood lactose after dairy product intake in healthy men. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The absence of a dedicated transport for disaccharides in the intestine implicates that the metabolic use of dietary lactose relies on its prior hydrolysis at the intestinal brush border. Consequently, lactose in blood or urine has mostly been associated

The Role of Lactose Tolerance in Pre-Colonial Development [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper establishes a link between natural selection since the Neolithic Revolution and economic conditions in the pre-colonial era. The ability to digest milk, or to be lactose tolerant, is conferred by a gene variant, which is unequally distributed ...

Fermentation‐Assisted Valorization: A Sustainable Strategy for Turning Fruit By‐Products Into Value‐Added Food Supplements

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A substantial proportion of fresh fruit undergoes processing, resulting in underutilized fruit by‑products (FBPs) that are rich in dietary fiber and bioactive compounds. Recent FBP valorization trends demonstrate that fermentation significantly enhances microbiological, nutritional, and sensory attributes, yielding value‑added food supplements.
