2p24.2 (rs7552) is a susceptibility locus for nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in the Brazilian population

The population of Brazil is highly admixed, with each individual showing variable levels of Amerindian, European and African ancestry, which may interfere in the genetic susceptibility of known risk loci to nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL±P). Here, we investigated 5 reported genome‐wide loci for NSCL±P in an ancestry‐structured case‐control study containing 1697 Brazilian participants (831 NSCL±P and 866 healthy controls). SNPs rs7552 in 2q24.2, rs8049367 in 16p13.3, rs1880646, rs7406226, rs9891446 in 17p13, rs1588366 in 17q23.2 and rs73039426 in 19q13.11 were genotyped using TaqMan allelic discrimination assays and genomic ancestry was estimated using a panel of 40 biallelic short insertion/deletion polymorphic markers informative of the Brazilian population. Logistic regression analysis of the single‐markers revealed rs7552 in 2p24.2 as a susceptibility risk marker for NSCL±P, yielding an odds ratio (OR) of 1.71 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.31‐2.24, P = 9 × 10^?6) in the homozygous state. Several SNP‐SNP interactions containing rs7552 reached significance after adjustment for multiple tests (both Bonferroni assumption and 1000 permutation test), with the most significant interaction involving the 3‐loci among rs7552, rs9891446 and rs73039426 (P = 6.1 × 10^?9 and p_{1000 permutation} = 0.001). Our study is the first to support the association of rs7552 in 2p24.2 with NSCL±P in the highly admixed Brazilian population.     

Interactions between superoxide dismutase and paraoxonase polymorphic variants in nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in the Brazilian population

During development, oxidative stress is hypothesized to mediate embryotoxicity, which may be intensified by exposition to environmental factors and by genetic variations in the enzymes involved in protecting cells from these damaging effects, including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and paraoxonase (PON). The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in genes associated with the neutralization of oxidative stress (SOD and PON family members) in the risk of nonsyndromic oral cleft in the Brazilian population. Initially, we tested for association between 28 SNP in SOD1, SOD2, SOD3, PON1, PON2, and PON3 among 325 nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL±P) case-parent trios. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to explore gene, GxG and GxE, involving factors that induce oxidative stress accumulation during pregnancy. Signals still significant after both Bonferroni correction and in permutation test were subsequently confirmed in an ancestry-structured case–control analysis with 722 NSCL±P and 866 controls from the same population. In the trio sample, transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) (allele and haplotype) and GxE analysis showed no significant associations, but multiple pairwise GxG interactions involving 10 SNP in PON1, PON2, and PON3 were detected and further examined in the case–control sample. The PON1 rs2237583 and PON2 rs17166879 yielded significant evidence of SNP-SNP interactions after adjustment for multiple tests (both Bonferroni correction and 10,000 permutation test). The C allele and the CT genotype of PON1 rs2237583 were associated with significant protective effects against NSCL±P, while rs3917490 showed a significant association only in the sample composed of patients displaying high African ancestry. Our results reveal associations between rs2237583 and rs3917490 in PON1 and GxG interactions containing rs2237583 and rs17166879 with the susceptibility of NSCL±P in the Brazilian population. Furthermore, this study underlines the recent tendency of taking into account potential GxG interactions to clarify the underlying mechanisms associated with the etiology of this common malformation.

Objective To study the association of the A2756G polymorphism of the methionine synthase (MS) gene with nonsyndromie cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in Chinese. Methods Ninety-seven NSCL/P case-parent triads were selected as the case group. One hundred and four healthy subjects and their biological parents were selected as control group. For all subjects the A2756G polymorphism of the MS gene was examined by PCR-RFLP method. Results There was no statistical difference in genotype and allele frequencies for MS A2756G variants among family members between case group and control group. The GG genotype was not detected in the offsprings and mothers. The odds ratio and confidence interval of genotype AG in offspring, father and mother were 1.78(0.74-4.34), 0.80(0. 36-1.79) and 1.26(0. 54-2.93) respectively.

Maternal MTHFR variant forms increase the risk in offspring of isolated nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate

The pathogenesis of cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is complex; its onset could be due to the interaction of various genetic and environmental factors. Recently MTHFR functional polymorphisms were found to increase the risk of this common malformation; however, this finding is still debated. We investigated 110 sporadic CL/P patients, their parents and 289 unrelated controls for c.665C>T (commonly known as 677C>T; p.Ala222Val) and c.1286A>C (known as 1298A>C; p.Glu429Ala) polymorphism in the MTHFR gene. Transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) showed no distortion in allele transmission. Nevertheless, association studies revealed significant differences in allele frequencies between mothers of CL/P patients and controls. This work supports the hypothesis that a lower MTHFR enzyme activity in pregnant women, mostly related to the c.665C>T variant form, is responsible for a higher risk of having CL/P affected offspring.     

Evidence of the involvement of the DHFR gene in nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate

Studies aimed at evidencing genetic causes for neural tube defect (NTD) occurrence have often provided the inspiration for orofacial cleft aetiology investigations. The correlation between the two congenital malformations is provided by the similar incidence timing and the involvement of structures localized in the midline of the embryo. This connection is corroborated by the existence of a number of genes involved in both malformations. In this article, we considered the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) gene, previously seen implicated in NTDs, as a candidate for cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) risk. Four SNPs mapping on the DHFR gene were genotyped for 400 Italian CL/P triads, using TaqMan^® approach. The rs1677693 provided evidence of association, even if at borderline level (P value 0.049). In particular, the variant allele seems to have a protective effect OR = 0.80 (95% C.I. 0.64–0.99). Moreover, the combination of rs1677693(A)-rs1650723(G) alleles showed a significant association OR 0.64 (95% C.I. 0.47–0.86) (P value = 0.006). This represents the first attempt to demonstrate a role for DHFR in CL/P aetiology, howbeit the study of such gene deserves a deepening.

目的 探讨干扰素调节因子6 (interferon regulatory factor 6,IRF6)基因rs2235371位点820G＞A单核苷酸多态性与非综合征性唇裂伴或不伴腭裂(nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate,NSCL士P)的相关性.方法 收集106例患者及其父母以及129名对照及其父母的核心家庭标本,用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性的方法进行IRF6基因rs2235371位点单核苷酸多态性检测;用人群关联研究、传递不平衡检验(transmission disequilibrium test,TDT)、单倍型相对风险率(haplotype-based haplotype relative risk,HHRR)、家系为基础的关联检验(family-based association tests,FBAT)等方法进行统计分析.结果 病例组与对照组相比,子代的基因型分布差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05),而等位基因频率比较差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);母亲组基因型分布差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);按唇腭裂类型分类后,单纯唇裂组子代基因型分布和等位基因的频率与对照组相比差异均有统计学意义(P＜0.05);而唇腭裂组基因型分布和等位基因频率差异均无统计学意义(P＞0.05).传递不平衡检验提示,rs2235371位点的G等位基因在NSCL±P核心家庭中存在传递不平衡(x2=5.56,P=0.024).HHRR检验x2=5.115,P=0.024,OR=1.674,95％CI:1.069～2.621;FBAT检验Z=2.218,P=0.027.结论 在中国北方人群中IRF6基因rs2235371位点突变与非综合征性唇腭裂存在关联.     

亲代MTHFR基因677C/T多态性与子代非综合征性唇腭裂的相关性

目的 探讨山东地区亲代亚甲基四氢叶酸还原酶( methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase,MTHFR)基因677C/T多态性与子代发生非综合征性唇腭裂(nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate,NSCL/P)的关联.方法 应用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性分析技术(polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism,PCR-RFLP)对2006年8月至2008年8月在齐鲁医院治疗的89对NSCL/P患者亲代和64对健康查体儿童亲代的MTHFR基因677C/T多态性进行检测.结果 患者母亲与正常儿童母亲的T等位基因频率分别为65.73％和46.09％,C等位基因频率分别为34.27％和53.91％,其构成比差异有统计学意义(x2=13.663,P＜0.01);携带T等位基因的母亲子代患NSCL/P的风险为未携带T等位基因的母亲子代的2.243倍(95％CI:1.408～3.572).患者的父亲与正常儿童父亲的T等位基因频率分别为62.92％和55.47％ ;C等位基因频率分别为37.08％和44.53％,其构成比差异无统计学意义(x2 =2.222,P＞0.05);病例组和对照组后代可能为纯合突变胎儿的机率分别为43％和29％(P＞0.05).结论 山东地区母亲的MTHFR基因677C/T突变对后代NSCL/P的发生有重要的影响;父亲的MTHFR基因677C/T突变则可能不是子代患NSCL/P的风险因素.
