Abstract:
The molecular mechanism of cleft lip and palate has been a hot topic for research in recent years.With the development of genetic technology,more than 100 genes have been associated with cleft lip and palate,though the pathological mechanism of such genes has not been delineated.The information carried by each of these genes may affect the phenotype through signal pathway,and abnormal function of these signal pathways has been found in the formation of cleft lip and palate.A series of signal factors have known to involve in the regulation of gene expression,and may interact with each other to form complex signal regulatory networks which are involved in the guidance of cell activity and tissue formation.This article has summarized several signal pathways related to lip and palate,and the molecular mechanism underlying the development of lip and palate.
