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.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a significant health care problem worldwide and is characterized by increased fasting glucose and obesity. Resistin is a protein hormone produced both by adipocytes and immunocompetent cells, including those residing in adipose tissue, and is believed to modulate glucose tolerance and insulin action. This study examined the association of resistin gene polymorphisms, rs1862513 and rs3745368, and related haplotypes with the development of metabolic syndrome in a Han Chinese population. This case-control study was performed on 3792 subjects, including 1771 MetS cases and 2021 healthy controls from the Jilin province of China. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the relationship between gene polymorphism and MetS. Our results showed that there were no significant associations between MetS and the genotype distributions in four kinds of inheritance models, allele frequencies, and related haplotypes of resistin gene polymorphisms rs1862513 and rs3745368 (allpvalues > 0.05). Based on our study findings, we concluded that mutations in resistin genes are not associated with the presence of MetS in a Han Chinese population from Jilin province in China.
