Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between D17S579 microsatellite marker allelic polymorphisms in retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARA) gene and the genetic susceptibility to nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in Hunan Hans. METHODS: PCR and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) were used to detect the polymorphism of RARA gene marked by D17S579 among 140 patients...
