Investigating Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the Etiology of Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate in the Polish Population.

Abstract excerpt

Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) are the most common congenital anomalies in the craniofacial region, leading to morphological and functional disruptions in the facial region. Their etiology involves genetic and environmental factors, with genetics playing a crucial role. This study aimed to investigate the association of four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)-rs987525, rs590223, rs522616, and rs4714384-with...
