Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: In our study, we focussed on three SNPs in the non-coding regions near FGFR2 gene, as studies on non-coding variants in the genome are the novel trends to identify the susceptible loci for nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P). FGFR2 gene is selected as a candidate gene based on knock out animal models and the role played in syndromic forms of clefting. FGFR2 gene also plays an...
