Formation of NSCLP/CP arises from the interaction of environmental and genetic factors. This paper provides a review of recent progress in defining the genetic causes of NSCLP. Methods: A literature review was conducted on the Medline data by searching for the following keywords: genes, non-syndromic cleft lip-palate, and genetics of clefts lip-palates, until January 2018. Results: Various genes are identified in different population and country, with the study using case parent’s trio. The aim of this study contributes to review relative gene which has been identify in non-syndromic cleft lip and palate, and to help to have a better understanding of the inheritance pattern of this pathology and the prevention of genetic disease. Conclusion: Although three major genes have been confirmed, the genetic research is necessary to provide an understanding of the pathophysiology of the clefts lip-palates.展开更多
目的:探索非综合征型唇裂伴或不伴腭裂(non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate, NSCL/P)全基因组常见遗传变异对NSCL/P风险的影响。方法:利用全基因组关联研究(genome-wide association study, GWAS)数据,以全基因组单...目的:探索非综合征型唇裂伴或不伴腭裂(non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate, NSCL/P)全基因组常见遗传变异对NSCL/P风险的影响。方法:利用全基因组关联研究(genome-wide association study, GWAS)数据,以全基因组单核苷酸多态性(single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP)遗传度和基因组不同分区SNP遗传度评估基因组上常见变异的效应。对GWAS汇总数据进行质量控制,标准包括数据中无缺失值、弱势等位基因频率≥1%、P值在0~1、SNP正负链明确等。利用连锁不平衡得分回归计算NSCL/P的SNP遗传度,采用分层的连锁不平衡得分回归计算基因组编码区、启动子区、内含子区、增强子区和超级增强子区的分区SNP遗传度,并评估不同分区内的富集度,分析工具为LDSC (v1.0.1)软件。结果:纳入中国人群806个NSCL/P核心家系(2 418人)的GWAS数据,490 593个SNP通过质量控制,被纳入到SNP遗传度的计算中。观测样本中NSCL/P的SNP遗传度为0.55(95%CI:0.28~0.82),由于观测样本患病率较高,按中国人群患病率转换为一般人群后SNP遗传度为0.37(95%CI:0.19~0.55)。SNP遗传度在增强子区的富集度为15.70(P=0.04),在超级增强子区的富集度为3.18(P=0.03)。结论:基因组常见变异有助于解释一部分中国人群NSCL/P目前未被解释的遗传度,同时中国人群NSCL/P的SNP遗传度在增强子分区和超级增强子分区中显著富集,提示该区域中可能存在未被发现的遗传致病因素。展开更多
目的:探索亚裔人群中转化生长因子β(transforming growth factor-β,TGF-β)信号通路基因多态性与非综合征型唇裂合并或不合并腭裂(non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate,NSCL/P)的关联及可能存在的基因-基因、基因-...目的:探索亚裔人群中转化生长因子β(transforming growth factor-β,TGF-β)信号通路基因多态性与非综合征型唇裂合并或不合并腭裂(non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate,NSCL/P)的关联及可能存在的基因-基因、基因-环境交互作用。方法:选取1038个NSCL/P核心家系作为研究对象。对TGF-β信号通路上的10个基因的343个单核苷酸多态性(single nucleotide polymorphism,SNP)位点进行了传递不平衡检验(transmission disequilibrium test,TDT),采用条件Logistic回归模型进行基因-基因交互作用分析和基因-环境交互作用分析。研究收集的环境因素包括患儿母亲孕期吸烟、被动吸烟、乙醇摄入量以及维生素使用情况。由于患儿母亲孕期吸烟和饮酒暴露率较低(<3%),因此,仅对母亲孕期被动吸烟及补充多种维生素这两个环境因素与基因之间的交互作用进行了分析。采用Bonferroni法对结果进行多重检验校正,显著性的阈值设置为P=1.46×10-4。结果:共有4个基因的23个SNP位点与NSCL/P之间存在关联(P<0.05),但经过Bonferroni多重检验校正后,这些关联均未达到统计学显著性水平。经过Bonferroni多重检验校正之后,6对SNP[rs4939874(SMAD2)与rs1864615(TGFBR2),rs2796813(TGFB2)与rs2132298(TGFBR2),rs4147358(SMAD3)与rs1346907(TGFBR2),rs4939874(SMAD2)与rs1019855(TGFBR2),rs4939874(SMAD2)与rs12490466(TGFBR2),以及rs2009112(TGFB2)与rs4075748(TGFBR2)]存在显著的统计学交互作用(P<1.46×10-4),基因-环境交互作用的分析没有达到多重检验校正阈值的显著结果。结论:未发现TGF-β通路基因多态性与NSCL/P的关联,该通路上部分基因可能通过基因-基因交互作用影响NSCL/P的发病风险。未来仍需其他独立研究的证据支持,以进一步的探索其中潜在的生物学机制。展开更多

An absence of the associated protein FMRP leads to the deregulation of many genes, which results in phenotypes of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), anxiety, epilepsy and autism. The aim of this article is to report the clinical case of twin siblings affected by FXS and to describe the procedures for dental treatment with intravenous sedation. Information regarding the characteristic manifestations of FXS not only aided in the handling of the patients but also enabled us to develop clinical programs to promote and maintain oral health using individualized and specific dental procedures.展开更多
