Objectives:
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P) is one of the most common birth malformations. Currently, numerous susceptibility SNPs have been reported by GWA studies, however, the replications of them among NSCL ± P from Han Chinese were very limited.
Design:
In this study, we selected 16 SNPs around 1q32.2 based on the published GWA studies and replicated them among 302 trios with NSCL ± P from Han Chinese Population. The genotypic data was analyzed with FBAT, PLINK and R package.
Setting:
The study was conducted in a tertiary medical center.
Patients, Participants:
302 patients with CL ± P and their parents.
Main Outcome Measures:
To ascertain the genetic variants in 1q32.2 in patients with CL ± P in Han Chinese Population.
Interventions:
Blood samples were collected.
Results:
We found T allele (Z = 4.26, p = 0.00002) and T/T homozygotes (Z = 4.4, p = 0.000011) at rs12063989 was significantly over-transmitted among non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P).
Conclusions:
We found rs12063989 exhibited significant association with the occurrence of NSCL ± P, which would provide new evidence for the future study in the etiology of NSCL ± P.

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
