Mitochondrial genetic variability: Comparison of two archaelogical sites samples from Northwestern Argentina
Nota Editorial
Y-chromosomal STR haplotype diversity in a sample from the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (Argentina)
El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar el origen de los haplotipos del cromosoma Y en una muestra poblacional del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires (AMBA), y comparar estos resultados con los obtenidos previamente a nivel mitocondrial. Se determinaron 17 marcadores Y-STRs en 85 donantes no emparentados. Un total de 85 haplotipos únicos fueron observados. La diversidad haplotípica fue de 1,000 +/- 0.0018, y la diversidad genética media de 0,680…
Brief communication: Restricted geographic distribution for Y‐Q* paragroup in South America
We analyzed 21 paragroup Q* Y chromosomes from South American aboriginal and urban populations. Our aims were to evaluate the phylogenetic status, geographic distribution, and genetic diversity in these groups of chromosomes and compare the degree of genetic variation in relation to Q1a3a haplotypes. All Q* chromosomes from our series and five samples from North American Q* presented the derivate state for M346, that is present upstream to M3, an…
How many populations set foot through the Patagonian door? Genetic composition of the current population of Bahía Blanca (Argentina) based on data from 19 Alu polymorphisms
The city of Bahía Blanca occupies a strategic place in Argentina south of the Pampean region in the north‐east corner of the Patagonia. Since 1828, this city has been the historical and political border between Amerindian lands in the south, and the lands of European colonists. Nowadays, Bahía Blanca is an urban population mainly composed by descendents of immigrants from Spain and other European countries with apparently low admixture with Ameri…
T-Cell and chemokine receptor variation in South Amerindian populations
The immune response of relatively small, endogamous populations is of special interest, because they may differ from those of large, ethnically diverse, urban groups. As a contribution to this area of investigation, we tested 99 individuals from two Brazilian native populations for two T-cell receptor gene segments (TCRBV3S1 and TCRBV18) and 241 subjects from eight tribes of this ethnic group in relation to the chemokine receptor CCR5delta32 alle…
African ancestry of the population of Buenos Aires
The population of Argentina today does not have a “visible” black African component. However, censuses conducted during most of the 19th century registered up to 30% of individuals of African origin living in Buenos Aires city. What has happened to this African influence? Have all individuals of African origin died, as lay people believe? Or is it possible that admixture with the European immigrants made the African influence “invisible?” We inve…
Intra- and Intercontinental Molecular Variability of an Alu Insertion in the 3' Untranslated Region of the LDLR Gene
One-hundred three individuals from two Mongolian, two Siberian, and ten native American populations were studied in relation to a 340-bp sequence from an Alu insertion located in the 3' untranslated region of the LDLR gene. Seven haplotypes have been determined, and haplotype B1 was the most common, accounting for about half the sequences found. In general, diversity values are quite high, about 2.5 times higher than those found in other autosoma…
New genetic data on Amerindians from the Paraguayan Chaco
New data on 17 blood group and protein genetic systems obtained among the Ayoreo and Lengua Indians of Paraguay are presented. They include the first report on the red cell band‐3 protein investigated among South American Indians. This information was integrated with previous results available for these two and four other groups. Five of the six populations reside in the Chaco area, while the sixth was included as an outgroup living elsewhere in …
Genetic relationships between Amerindian populations of Argentina
A total of 495 individuals from five different Argentinian tribes was examined for variation in 23 blood group and protein genetic systems, and the results were integrated with previous data on some of these systems. These tribes generally present RH ∗︁ R1, PGM1 ∗︁ 1, and ACP ∗︁ A frequencies lower and RH ∗︁ R2, ESD ∗︁ 1, and GLO ∗︁ 1 prevalences higher than those observed in other South American Indian groups. Earlier studies with mitochondrial …
Demography, genetic diversity, and population relationships among Argentinean Mapuche Indians
Fertility, mortality and migration data from four Mapuche Indian communities located along a 215-km NE-SW linear area in the Province of Río Negro, Argentina, were collated with genetic information furnished by nine blood group systems and by mtDNA haplogroups. The demographic and genetic data indicated a clear dichotomy, which split the four populations into two groups of two. Differing degrees of non-Indian exchanges was probably the main deter…
High heterogeneity of Apolipoprotein E gene frequencies in South American Indians
The apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphism was investigated in 186 individuals from six South American Indian tribes, and the results integrated with those previously presented for this ethnic group. The three APOE alleles commonly reported in other populations were also observed in South Amerindians with a highly heterogeneous distribution. As in other populations, APOE*3 was the most common allele (51-98%) followed by APOE*4 (2-47%). These two is…
Demography and blood genetics of Argentinian Mapuche Indians
The whole Mapuche Indian community of Blancura Centro was covered by a demographic census, with special attention given to variables of genetic interest. Afterwards a sample of it was investigated in relation to 22 genetic systems. The community can be characterized as a young group, with high fertility, but moderate mortality and endogamy. The index of opportunity for selection is relatively low (0.46). The presence of variation at the ABO and L…
Sexual dimorphism in schoolchildren of the Villa Iapi neighborhood (Quilmes, Buenos Aires, Argentina)
Villa IAPI is a poor neighborhood of about 5,000 inhabitants in the overpopulated conurbano bonaerense at the outskirts of the city of Buenos Aires. Most of the adult male residents are construction workers; the rest are temporary workers, underemployed, or unemployed. The inhabitants of Villa IAPI suffer the effects of many adverse socio‐economic conditions, including poor nutrition, deficient sanitation, and inadequate medical care. Seven anthr…
