The diagnosis of adult-type hypolactasia has been difficult to establish because of unsatisfactory diagnostic methods. C/T 13910 single nucleotide polymorphism residing 13910 base pairs from the 5′end of the lactase gene has been shown to be associated with lactase persistence. The aim of the study was to assess the applicability of the C/T-13910 variant as a diagnostic test for adult-type hypolactasia during childhood. Methods: Intestinal biopsies were obtained from 329 children and adolescents of African, Finnish, and other White origins aged 0.1-20 years undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy because of abdominal complaints. The biopsies were assayed for lactase, sucrase, and maltase activity and genotyped for the C/T-13910 variant using polymerase chain reaction minisequencing. Results: The frequency of the C/C-13910 genotype defining lactase non-persistence was well in agreement in this study with published figures for the prevalences of adult-type hypolactasia in Africans and Whites. The C/C-13910 genotype was associated with very low lactase activity (<10 U/g protein) in the majority of children tested at 8 years of age and in every child older than 12 years of age giving a specificity of 100% and sensitivity of 93% for the genetic test. The decline of lactase activity was somewhat earlier in African compared with Finnish children with C/C -13910 genotype (p < 0.03). Conclu sions: Genetic test of C/T -13910 polymorphism can be used as a first stage scr eening test for adult-type hypolactasia.展开更多

Adult lactose intolerance, which affects the majority of the population in the world, has been associated with a single nucleotide polymorphism, C- 13910T, located upstream of the lactase gene. Material and methods. Adult patients undergoing lactose tolerance tests with lactose challenge and plasma glucose measurements were included in the study comprising 44 Swedes and 7 non- Swedish individuals. A real- time PCR method was established for the genotyping. Results. Out of 51 patients 48 had concordant results on genotyping and lactose tolerance tests, e.g. - 13910T/T and - 13910C/T genotypes had high glucose elevations. All patients with the heterozygous genotype, - 13910C/T, had high glucose elevations, and no gene- dose relationship was observed when comparing maximal glucose increases for cases with - 13910C/T and - 13910T/T genotypes. Conclusions. Genotyping could replace lactose challenge as a first- stage screening test in adults of European descent, but should be used together with tolerance tests in children and patients where secondary lactose intolerance is suspected.展开更多

METHODS: Blood samples for genotyping lactase activity, defining the C/T-13910 variant by polymerase chain reaction, and direct sequencing were taken from 231 medical students of Russian origin aged 17-26 years. We analyzed milk product consumption by questionnaire which was specially designed for the estimation of milk consumption and abdominal complaints. RESULTS: We found that the prevalence of the C/C-13190 genotype in the northern Russian population was 35.6%. The other genotypes nearby C/T-13910 and associated with lactase activity were not present in the study population. The consumption of milk among people with the non-persistent genotype tended to be lower than among the lactose tolerant subjects, but was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: An investigation of the lactase persistent genotype in a northern Russian population has not been performed before, The genotype did not affect the consumption of milk products in this population which could be explained by low consumption of milk products among the entire study population.展开更多
