Genetic-epigenetic interactions (meQTLs) in orofacial clefts etiology
2025-02-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objectives</h4> Nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (OFCs) involve complex genetic and environmental factors, with over 60 risk loci accounting for only a minority of estimated heritability and residing in non-coding regions with unclear functional relevance. We hypothesize that some genetic variants alter orofacial cleft risk by modifying DNA methylation (DNAm) at regulatory sequences essential...
