Mutation and association analysis of the PVR and PVRL2 genes in patients with non-syndromic cleft lip and palate.

ABSTRACT: Orofacial clefts (OFC; MIM 119530) are among the most common major birth defects. Here, we carried out mutation screening of the PVR and PVRL2 genes, which are both located at an OFC linkage region at 19q13 (OFC3) and are closely related to PVRL1, which has been associated with both syndromic and non-syndromic cleft lip and palate (nsCLP). We screened a total of 73 nsCLP patients and 105 non-cleft controls from the USA for variants in PVR and PVRL2, including all exons and encompassing all isoforms. We identified four variants in PVR and five in PVRL2. One non-synonymous PVR variant, A67T, was more frequent among nsCLP patients than among normal controls, but this difference did not achieve statistical significance.

Non-syndromic Cleft Lip and Palate Polymorphisms Affect Normal Lip Morphology.

Project description:Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P) is a frequent malformation of the facial region. Genetic variants (SNPs) within nineteen loci have been previously associated with NSCL/P in GWAS studies of European individuals. These common variant SNPs may have subtler effects on the morphology of the lip and face in unaffected individuals. Several studies have investigated the genetic influences on facial morphology using land-marking methods, but these landmarks are sparse in the lip region. The aim of this study is to assess for associations between the nineteen NSCL/P SNPs and normal lip phenotypes, using a detailed categorical scale. Three-dimensional laser scanned facial images were obtained of 4,747 subjects recruited from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) and genetic data was available for 3,643 of them. A polygenetic risk score (PRS) combining the nineteen NSCL/P SNPs was associated with V-shaped Cupid's bow (P = 3 × 10-4) and narrow philtrum (P = 2 × 10-4) phenotypes. Analysis of individual SNPs found strong evidence for association between rs227731 and skeletal II pattern (P = 5 × 10-6). This study finds that known NSCL/P SNPs affect lip phenotypes in the general population, and an increased PRS is associated with narrow philtrum and V-shaped Cupid's bow. However, the difference in NSCL/P PRS between people with and without certain lip features is unlikely to be great enough to serve as a useful marker of NSCL/P risk.

Polygenic risk impacts PDGFRA mutation penetrance in non-syndromic cleft lip and palate.

Project description:Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is a common, severe craniofacial malformation that imposes significant medical, psychosocial and financial burdens. NSCL/P is a multifactorial disorder with genetic and environmental factors playing etiologic roles. Currently, only 25% of the genetic variation underlying NSCL/P has been identified by linkage, candidate gene and genome-wide association studies. In this study, whole-genome sequencing and genome-wide genotyping followed by polygenic risk score (PRS) and linkage analyses were used to identify the genetic etiology of NSCL/P in a large three-generation family. We identified a rare missense variant in PDGFRA (c.C2740T; p.R914W) as potentially etiologic in a gene-based association test using pVAAST (P = 1.78 × 10-4) and showed decreased penetrance. PRS analysis suggested that variant penetrance was likely modified by common NSCL/P risk variants, with lower scores found among unaffected carriers. Linkage analysis provided additional support for PRS-modified penetrance, with a 7.4-fold increase in likelihood after conditioning on PRS. Functional characterization experiments showed that the putatively causal variant was null for signaling activity in vitro; further, perturbation of pdgfra in zebrafish embryos resulted in unilateral orofacial clefting. Our findings show that a rare PDGFRA variant, modified by additional common NSCL/P risk variants, have a profound effect on NSCL/P risk. These data provide compelling evidence for multifactorial inheritance long postulated to underlie NSCL/P and may explain some unusual familial patterns.

Variation in WNT genes is associated with non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate.

Project description:Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP) is a common birth defect. Genetic and environmental factors have been causally implicated and studies have begun to delineate genetic contributions. The Wnt genes are involved in regulating mid-face development and upper lip fusion and are therefore strong candidates for an etiological role in NSCLP. Furthermore, the clf1 region in A/WyN clefting susceptible mice contains the Wnt3 and Wnt9B genes. To assess the role of the Wnt family of genes in NSCLP, we interrogated seven Wnt genes (Wnt3, Wnt3A, Wnt5A, Wnt7A, Wnt8A, Wnt9B and Wnt11) in our well-defined NSCLP dataset. Thirty-eight single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped in 132 multiplex NSCLP families and 354 simplex parent-child trios. In the entire dataset, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in three genes, Wnt3A (P = 0.006), Wnt 5A (P = 0.002) and Wnt11 (P = 0.0001) were significantly associated with NSCLP after correction for multiple testing. When stratified by ethnicity, the strongest associations were found for SNPs in Wnt3A (P = 0.0007), Wnt11 (P = 0.0012) and Wnt8A (P = 0.0013). Multiple haplotypes in Wnt genes were associated with NSCLP, and gene-gene interactions were observed between Wnt3A and both Wnt3 and Wnt5A (P = 0.004 and P = 0.039, respectively). This data suggests that alteration in Wnt gene function may perturb formation and/or fusion of the facial processes and predispose to NSCLP.

Identification of susceptibility genes in non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate using whole-exome sequencing.

Project description:Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is among the most common congenital malformations. The etiology of NSCL/P remains poorly characterized owing to its complex genetic heterogeneity. The objective of this study was to identify genetic variants that increase susceptibility to NSCL/P.Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed in 8 fetuses with NSCL/P in China. Bioinformatics analysis was performed using commercially available software. Variants detected by WES were validated by Sanger sequencing.By filtering out synonymous variants in exons, we identified average 8575 nonsynonymous single nucleotide variants (SNVs). We subsequently compared the SNVs against public databases including NCBI dbSNP build 135 and 1000 Genomes Project and obtained an average of 203 SNVs. Total 12 reported candidate genes were verified by Sanger sequencing. Sanger sequencing also confirmed 16 novel SNVs shared by two or more samples.We have found and confirmed 16 susceptibility genes responsible for NSCL/P, which may play important role in the etiology of NSCL/P. The susceptibility genes identified in this study will not only be useful in revealing the etiology of NSCL/P but also in diagnosis and treatment of the patients with NSCL/P.

Genomic expression in non syndromic cleft lip and palate patients: A review.

Project description:Cleft lip and palate are common congenital anomalies with significant medical, psychological, social, and economic ramifications, affecting one in seven hundred live births. Genetic causes of non syndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCLP) include chromosomal rearrangements, genetic susceptibility to teratogenic exposures, and complex genetic contributions of multiple genes. Development of the orofacial clefts in an individual will depend on the interaction of several moderately effecting genes with environmental factors. Several candidate genes have been genotyped in different population types, using case parent trio or case control design; also genes have been sequenced and SNPs have been reported. Quantitative and molecular analysis have shown linkage and association studies to be more relevant. Recent literature search shows genome wide association studies using microarray. The aim of this paper was to review the approaches to identify genes associated with NSCLP and to analyze their differential expressions. Although no major gene has been confirmed, a lot of research is ongoing to provide an understanding of the pathophysiology of the orofacial clefts.

Non syndromic cleft lip and palate: relationship between sex and clinical extension.

Project description:UnlabelledCleft lip and/or palate represent the most common congenital anomaly of the face.AimTo describe the correlation between non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate and gender, and its severity in the Brazilian population.MethodsCross-sectional study, between 2009 and 2011, in a sample of 366 patients. The data was analyzed with descriptive statistics and multinomial logistic regression with a 95% interval to estimate the likelihood of the types of cleft lip and/or palate affecting the genders.ResultsAmong the 366 cases of non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate, the more frequent clefts were cleft lip and palate, followed respectively by cleft lip and cleft palate. The cleft palates were more frequent in females, while the cleft lip and palate and cleft lips only predominated in males. The risk of cleft li in relation the cleft palate was 2.19 times in males when compared to females; while the risk of cleft lip and palate in relation to cleft palate alone was 2.78 times in males compared to females.ConclusionThis study showed that there were differences in the distribution of the non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate between males and females.

Investigation of candidate genes of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate, using both case-control and family-based association studies.

Project description:ObjectiveNon-syndromic cleft of the lip and/or palate (NSCL/P) is one of the most common polygenic diseases. In this study, both case-control and family-based association study were used to confirm whether the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) were associated with NSCL/P.MethodsA total of 37 nuclear families and 189 controls were recruited, whose blood DNA was extracted and subjected to genotyping of SNPs of 27 candidate genes by polymerase chain reaction-improved multiple ligase detection reaction technology (PCR-iMLDR). Case-control statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS 19.0. Haplotype Relative Risk (HRR), transmission disequilibrium test (TDT), and Family-Based Association Test (FBAT) were used to test for over-transmission of the target alleles in case-parent trios. The gene-gene interactions on NSCL/P were analyzed by Unphased-3.1.4.ResultsIn case-control statistical analysis, only C14orf49 chr14_95932477 had statistically significant on genotype model (P = .03) and allele model (P = .03). Seven SNPs had statistically significant on TDT. None of 26 alleles has association with NSCL/P on FBAT. Some SNPs had haplotype-haplotype interactions and genotype-genotype interactions.ConclusionC14orf49 chr14_95932477 was significantly different between cases and controls on genotype model and allele model by case-control design. Seven SNPs were significantly different on HRR. Four SNPs were significantly different on TDT.

Significant association between IRF6 820G->A and non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in the Thai population.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Previous data have shown an association between DNA sequence variants in the IRF6 gene and an increased risk of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) in some populations. OBJECTIVE: To investigate Thai CL/P patients and relative for a 820G-->A polymorphism. SUBJECTS: 192 CL/P Thai patients, 177 of their mothers, 73 of their fathers, and 278 controls. RESULTS: There were significant differences in the frequency distributions of both genotypes (p = 0.02) and alleles (p = 0.04) among probands as compared with the control group. The odds ratio calculated for the patients having the GG genotype compared with the other two genotypes (GA and AA) was 1.67 (95% confidence interval, 1.13 to 2.47). This pattern is consistent with a recessive effect of the G allele. No association between any of the parents' genotypes and CL/P was found. The IRF6 820G-->A was responsible for 16.7% of the genetic contribution to CL/P. CONCLUSIONS: The findings confirm that IRF6 820G-->A is associated with CL/P.

Identification of novel susceptibility loci for non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate.

Project description:Although several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) have been reported, more novel association signals are remained to be exploited. Here, we performed an in-depth analysis of our previously published Chinese GWAS cohort study with replication in an extra dbGaP case-parent trios and another in-house Nanjing cohort, and finally identified five novel significant association signals (rs11119445: 3' of SERTAD4, P = 6.44 × 10-14 ; rs227227 and rs12561877: intron of SYT14, P = 5.02 × 10-13 and 2.80 × 10-11 , respectively; rs643118: intron of TRAF3IP3, P = 4.45 × 10-6 ; rs2095293: intron of NR6A1, P = 2.98 × 10-5 ). The mean (standard deviation) of the weighted genetic risk score (wGRS) from these SNPs was 1.83 (0.65) for NSCL/P cases and 1.58 (0.68) for controls, respectively (P = 2.67 × 10-16 ). Rs643118 was identified as a shared susceptible factor of NSCL/P among Asians and Europeans, while rs227227 may contribute to the risk of NSCL/P as well as NSCPO. In addition, sertad4 knockdown zebrafish models resulted in down-regulation of sox2 and caused oedema around the heart and mandibular deficiency, compared with control embryos. Taken together, this study has improved our understanding of the genetic susceptibility to NSCL/P and provided further clues to its aetiology in the Chinese population.

LAMA5: A new pathogenic gene for non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the effect of LAMA5 on palatal development in mice.MethodsThe palatine process of C57BL/6 J fetal mice on the embryonic day 13.5 (E13.5) was cultured in vitro via the rotating culture method. The LAMA5-shRNA adenovirus vector was constructed, then transfected into the palatal process of E13.5 for 48 h in vitro. A fluorescence microscope was used to visualize the fusion of palates. The expression of LAMA5 was also detected. The expression of ki67, cyclin D1, caspase 3, E-cadherin, vimentin and SHH signaling pathway-related signaling factors in the blank control group, the negative control group, and the LAMA5 interference group were detected after virus transfection.ResultsThe bilateral palates in the LAMA5 interference group were not fused after virus transfection. PCR and WB showed that the mRNA and protein expressions of LAMA5 were decreased in the LAMA5 interference group. Furthermore, the mRNA and protein expressions of ki67, cyclin D1 and gli1 were decreased in the LAMA5 interference group, while the mRNA and protein expressions of caspase 3 were increased. However, the mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin, vimentin, Shh and ptch1 did not significantly change in the LAMA5 interference group.ConclusionsLAMA5 silencing causes cleft palate by inhibiting the proliferation of mouse palatal cells and promoting apoptosis, which may not be involved in EMT. LAMA5 silencing can also cause cleft palate by interfering with the SHH signaling pathway.
