Environmental selection during the last ice age on the mother-to-infant transmission of vitamin D and fatty acids through breast milk

Abstract

Significance: The frequency of the human-specific EDAR V370A isoform is highly elevated in North and East Asian populations. The gene is known to have several pleiotropic effects, among which are sweat gland density and ductal branching in the mammary gland. The former has led some geneticists to argue that the near-fixation of this allele was caused by selection for modulation of thermoregulatory sweating. We provide an alternative hypothesis, that selection instead acted on the allele’s effect of increasing ductal branching in the mammary gland, thereby amplifying the transfer of critical nutrients to infants via mother’s milk. This is likely to have occurred during the Last Glacial Maximum when a human population was genetically isolated in the high-latitude environment of the Beringia.

  • The Yana River occupants apparently did not develop any genetic adaptations to vitamin D deficiency related to low UV radiation during the winter months.

    “They apparently did not develop any genetic adaptations to vitamin D deficiency related to low UV radiation during the winter months [70,79].”

  • They also include a variant of EDAR V370A, which was under strong positive selection pressure during the LGM and appears to be an adaptation to vitamin D deficiency (due to low UV radiation) related to nursing infants.

  • Genetic adaptation to low UV radiation, especially in the absence of dietary sources of vitamin D, may have been an important factor in the settlement history of the GAP.

    “Rather than presenting an ecological barrier, the large mammal populations of the GAP—much of which lies within arctic Beringia—probably attracted modern humans to high latitudes, although genetic adaptation to low UV radiation, especially in the absence of dietary sources of vitamin D, may have been an important factor in the settlement history of the GAP [79].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
