Similar Distributions of Dupuytren's Contracture and Y-Chromosome Haplogroup I Among Modern Europeans Suggest Simultaneous Spreading of These Traits Some 40 to 10 KYA.

چکیده
A proposition is made that when two independent traits show similar regional patterns of incidence among modern European regions, a plausible expectation is that these two, otherwise unrelated traits, have simultaneously been spread by migration of our ancestors. As a potential example for the proposed concept, distribution of patients with Dupuytren's contracture is here compared with the reported European distribution of Y-Chromosome Haplogroup I, a genetic marker linked to the last glaciation period.

Deep Roots for Aboriginal Australian Y Chromosomes
Australia was one of the earliest regions outside Africa to be colonized by fully modern humans, with archaeological evidence for human presence by 47,000 years ago (47 kya) widely accepted [1, 2]. However, the extent of subsequent human entry before the European colonial age is less clear. The dingo reached Australia about 4 kya, indirectly implying human contact, which some have linked to cha...
متن کاملThe effect of splinting after Dupuytren\'s contracture surgery: A Systematic Review
Objectives: Flexion contracture in fingers of hands is a complication of Dupuytren's contracture and cannot be stopped by the progressive course. The aim of this study was to review the effect of splinting in corrective of contracture after Dupuytren's contracture surgery. Methods: To carry out this research, a kind of systematic evidence-based review process (Duffy 2005) was used. For data...
متن کاملDHPLC Applications: Finding DNA Variation on the Y Chromosome
Denaturing High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (DHPLC) is a recently developed technique forthe detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and mutations. It involves the comparisonbetween two or more DNAs as a mixture of denatured and reannealed PCR products. The methodologyis based on the principle of reversed phase liquid chromatography and uses a unique DNA sepa...
متن کاملGenetic Evidence of an East Asian Origin and Paleolithic Northward Migration of Y-chromosome Haplogroup N
The Y-chromosome haplogroup N-M231 (Hg N) is distributed widely in eastern and central Asia, Siberia, as well as in eastern and northern Europe. Previous studies suggested a counterclockwise prehistoric migration of Hg N from eastern Asia to eastern and northern Europe. However, the root of this Y chromosome lineage and its detailed dispersal pattern across eastern Asia are still unclear. We an...
متن کاملAssociation study between Y-chromosome haplogroups and susceptibility to spermatogenic impairment in Han People from southwest China.
The non-recombining portion of the Y-chromosome contains numerous polymorphisms; therefore, it is now the most informative haplotyping system with wide-ranging applications. Idiopathic azoospermia and oligospermia are among the most important causes of male infertility. Different haplogroups may have different genetic backgrounds, which may be either susceptible or unsusceptible to idiopa...
