BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms in genes that are involved in folic acid metabolism may be important maternal risk factors for the birth of a child with nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCL/P). The aim of this study was to determine the involvement of polymorphic variants in four genes (MTHFR, MTHFD
## Background: Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (cl/p) is a common complex birth defect caused by the interaction between multiple genes and environmental factors. ## Methods: Five hundred and eighty-seven single nucleotide polymorphisms in 40 candidate genes related to orofaci
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is one of the most common craniofacial malformations, with a complex and multifactorial etiology. Because of the genetic heterogeneity of facial clefts, the aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of previously r
