Folic acid–containing supplement consumption during pregnancy and risk for oral clefts: A meta‐analysisWiley - Tập 79 Số 1 - Trang 8-15 - 2007
Rachel Badovinac, Martha M. Werler, Paige L. Williams, Karl T. Kelsey, Catherine Hayes
AbstractBACKGROUND: There is equivocal evidence in the published literature that
folic acid supplementation during pregnancy may protect against the common
congenital anomalies cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CLP) and cleft
palate alone (CP). We undertook this meta‐analysis to test the hypothesis that
nonsyndromic oral cleft birth prevalences are different for those whose mothers
took foli... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractBACKGROUNDPolymorphisms 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, MTHFD1,
MTR, and SLC19A1) that encode proteins related to folic acid metabolism in the
women with s... hiện toàn bộ
Folate‐related gene polymorphisms as risk factors for cleft lip and cleft palateWiley - Tập 82 Số 9 - Trang 636-643 - 2008

AbstractBACKGROUND:Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CLP) and cleft palate
only (CPO) have an inherited component and, many studies suggest, a relationship
with folate. Attempts to find folate‐related genes associated with clefts have,
however, often been inconclusive. This study examined four SNPs related to
folate metabolism (MTHFR 677 C→T, MTHFR 1298 A→C, MTHFD1 1958 G→A, and TC II 776

Folate pathway and nonsyndromic cleft lip and palateWiley - Tập 91 Số 1 - Trang 50-60 - 2011

AbstractBACKGROUNDNonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP) is
a common complex birth defect. Periconceptional supplementation with folic acid,
a key component in DNA synthesis and cell division, has reduced the birth
prevalence of neural tube defects and may similarly reduce the birth prevalence
of other complex birth defects including NSCLP. Past studies investigating the
role ... hiện toàn bộ
Mouse mutants with neural tube closure defects and their role in understanding human neural tube defectsWiley - Tập 79 Số 3 - Trang 187-210 - 2007
M. J. Harris, D. M. Juriloff
AbstractBACKGROUND: The number of mouse mutants and strains with neural tube
closure defects (NTDs) now exceeds 190, including 155 involving known genes, 33
with unidentified genes, and eight “multifactorial” strains. METHODS: The
emerging patterns of mouse NTDs are considered in relation to the unknown
genetics of the common human NTDs, anencephaly, and spina bifida aperta.

AXIN2andCDH1polymorphisms, tooth agenesis, and oral cleftsWiley - Tập 85 Số 2 - Trang 169-173 - 2009
Ariadne Letra, Renato Menezes, José Mauro Granjeiro, Alexandre R. Vieira
AbstractBACKGROUND:AXIN2andCDH1genes play important roles during craniofacial
morphogenesis. Mutations in these genes have been described in families
presenting colorectal cancer and tooth agenesis, and gastric cancer and cleft
lip/palate (CL/P). Oral clefts have been associated with tooth agenesis. We
investigated ifAXIN2andCDH1polymorphisms were associated with clefts or with any
associated dent... hiện toàn bộ
Platelet‐derived growth factor C plays a role in the branchial arch malformations induced by retinoic acidWiley - Tập 79 Số 3 - Trang 221-230 - 2007
Jing Han, Li Li, Zhaofeng Zhang, Ying Xiao, Jiuxiang Lin, Liping Zheng, Yong Li
AbstractBACKGROUND: All‐trans‐retinoic acid (RA) can produce branchial arch
abnormalities in postimplantation rodent embryos cultured in vitro.
Platelet‐derived growth factor C (PDGF‐C) was recently identified as a member of
the PDGF ligand family. Many members of the PDGF family are essential for
branchial arch morphogenesis and can be regulated by RA. The roles of PDGF‐C in
branchial arch malfor... hiện toàn bộ
Emerging data on the use of anti‐tumor necrosis factor‐alpha medications in pregnancyWiley - Tập 94 Số 8 - Trang 607-611 - 2012
Christina Chambers, Diana Johnson
AbstractAnti‐tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α medications are used for the
treatment of a number of autoimmune diseases. Evaluation of pregnancy safety for
these medications is complicated by the contribution of the underlying maternal
disease to adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preterm delivery and reduced
birth weight. Placental transport of these medications is thought to be minimal
in the firs... hiện toàn bộ
Teratogen update: MethotrexateWiley - Tập 94 Số 4 - Trang 187-207 - 2012
Sara C. Hyoun, Sarah Običan, Anthony R. Scialli
AbstractMethotrexate and aminopterin are folic acid antagonists that inhibit
dihydrofolate reductase, resulting in a block in the synthesis of thymidine and
inhibition of DNA synthesis. Methotrexate has been used for the treatment of
malignancy, rheumatic disorders, and psoriasis and termination of intrauterine
pregnancy. Recently, methotrexate has become a standard treatment for ectopic
pregnancy... hiện toàn bộ
