The association of MAFB gene polymorphism with nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in Ningxia Hui and Han population / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the association between non-syndrome cleft lip and palate (NSCL/P)and MAFB (rs6072081, rs6065259,rs17820943,rs11696257)gene polymorphism in NingXia Hui and Han population.Methods:512 cases of NSCL/P,258 case of Hui nationality and 254 of Han,174 cases of complete 3 core family members(patients and their parents),142 cases of single parents families(patients and their single parents),were collected in patient group.505 cases of healthy newborns were collected in control group.The MAFB gene SNPs were determined with TaqMan SNPs genotyping methods and the data were analyzed by case-con-trol analysis,transmission disequilibrium test(TDT)and family based association test(FBAT).Results:Case-control analysis found that,there was a statistical significance of the genotypes and allele frequency between patients and the controls in MAFB of the 4 locus (P 0.05).Conclusion:The 4 locus single nucle-otide polymorphism was associated with NSCL/P in Ningxia population.
