- W74449512 abstract "Distinctive disease patterns exist among Canadian Old Colony (Chortitza) Mennonites. This religious and genetic isolate is of 16th century Dutch/German ancestry. The group originated in the Netherlands, then settled in the Vistula delta area of western Prussia for 200 years. A small number of founding families later migrated to Chortitza, the Old Colony, in the Ukraine in the late 18th/early 19th century, where they remained a distinct genetic isolate. This group has come to Canada over the past 100 years. The more conservative Canadian Mennonites of Chortitza descent practice strict endogamy, have a large family size and live predominantly in rural public health subdistricts in the four western provinces, and in southern Ontario. The world's largest reported familial aggregations of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, of autoimmune diseases and of Tourette syndrome were initially ascertained in a small northern Alberta public health subdistrict. Clusterings of malformations, inborn errors of metabolism, and other conditions were also found in the subdistrict, and in group descendents living in other provinces. A founder effect, or genetic drift, accounts for the familial aggregations of autosomal recessive and dominant conditions, some diseases of multifactorial determination, and other inherited conditions in Canadian kinships descending from this ancestral group. The medical literature on genetic conditions among Canadian Mennonites is reviewed and re-evaluated in the light of this information. There is biochemical, serologic, and molecular biologic evidence in favour of genetic homogeneity amongst patients with certain inherited conditions in this special population group. This genetic isolate offers potential for the study of the genetic epidemiology and molecular biology of inherited diseases. A computerized genealogic data base on about 1400 group members, as well as a cryopreserved lymphocyte/DNA bank on over 100 individuals with genetic conditions has been established in this special population group." @default.
