Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Nonsyndromic cleft lip with/without cleft palate (nsCL/P, OMIM 119530) is one of the most common birth defects with a prevalence of ∼1/1000 in Caucasians. Studies have demonstrated an association between nsCL/P and the variants of the poliovirus receptor like-1 gene (PVRL1). The aim of this study was to describe novel variants in exon 3 of the PVRL1 gene and to investigate the association between exon...
