Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL±P) is a common craniofacial anomaly of complex etiology in people. WNT pathway genes have important roles during craniofacial development, and an association of WNT genes with NSCL±P has been demonstrated in different populations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between polymorphisms in WNT3 and WNT9B genes and CL/P in...
