Association of TGFB3 rs2300607 (IVSI+ 5321) Gene Variant with Non Syndromic Cleft Lip/Palate in South Indian Patients

Abstract: Introduction: Non Syndromic Cleft lip/Palate is a common congenital anomaly with significant medical, psychological, social and economic ramifications. It is an example of complex genetic trait. There is sufficient evidence to hypothesize that disease locus for this condition can be identified by candidate genes. The purpose of this study was to test whether TGFB3 rs2300607 (IVSI+ 5321) gene variant was involved in the etiology of Non Syndromal Cleft lip/Palate. Materials and methods: Blood samples were collec… Show more

“…The instrument has a good validity as described in the original version due to the use of an open-ended questionnaire, which was used to develop a close-ended questionnaire. Face validity was found to be satisfactory by virtue of relevant questions and subjective assessment [ 6 ]. To establish construct validity, 100 participants were asked to fill in the questionnaire followed by an interview with a researcher on the theme of the questionnaire, which was recorded and filled in by a second researcher.…”

“…The etiology of craniofacial anomalies is not entirely understood, but it is said that it is multifactorial, which includes both genetic and environmental factors. Genetic factors include mutations and polymorphisms or chromosomal aberrations like Down’s syndrome [ 6 – 8 ]. Environmental factors consisted of nutritional factors (e.g., vitamins, teratogens), medications (aspirin and valproic acid), viral infections like rubella, maternal smoking, and alcohol consumption [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…In a study done by Singh et al . [ 11 ] in the Indian population, the TGF-β3 gene was found to be associated with nonsyndromic CL/P. However, the role of TGF-α and MTHFR genes in causing nonsyndromic CL/P in the Indian population has not been previously studied.…”
