Abstract
In this paper, we present the results of an analysis of the resistance of heterozygous carriers of the с.-23+1G>A mutation in GJB2 gene to diarrhea in Yakutia. It was shown that in individuals with c.-23 + 1G> A mutation in the heterozygous state, cases of diarrhea for the last year were registered less frequently (p < 0.05) than in individuals without mutation. The research results support evidence that heterozygous carriers of GJB2 gene mutations may have increased resistance to gastrointestinal diseases, in particular to diarrhea.
