    • Suazo Sanhueza, José; Recabarren, Andrea S.; Marín, Nicolás R.; Blanco Castillo, Rafael (Springer, 2020)
      The aim of this study was to assess the association betweenIRF6single nucleotide polymorphisms and nonsyndromic cleft lip, with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P), in a Chilean population, based on a case-control sample and ...

      Background Current South American populations trace their origins mainly to three continental ancestries, i.e. European, Amerindian and African. Individual variation in relative proportions of each of these ancestries may ...
    • Millacura, Natalia; Pardo Vargas, Rosa; Cifuentes Ovalle, Lucía; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo (Cambridge University Press, 2017)
      Objective: Orofacial clefts (OFC) are the most prevalent craniofacial birth defect. Folic acid (FA) supplementation has been demonstrated as an effective intervention to reduce risk of OFC occurrence. However, the effect ...
    • Signore Ahumada, Iskra; Jerez, Carolina; Figueroa, Diego; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo; Marcelain Cubillos, Katherine; Cerda Arancibia, Óscar; Colombo Flores, Alicia (Wiley, 2016)
      Background: Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are common birth defects, which include a range of disorders with a complex etiology affecting formation of craniofacial structures. Some forms of syndromic OFCs are produced by defects ...
    • Blanco Castillo, Rafael; Colombo Flores, Alicia; Pardo Vargas, Rosa; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo (Elsevier, 2016)
      Animal models have shown evidence of the role of maternal methyl donor status and its metabolism (one-carbon metabolism) in normal embryonic maxillofacial development. Nevertheless, studies in humans have shown conflicting ...
    • Ramírez Chau, Cristian Adolfo; Blanco Castillo, Rafael; Colombo Flores, Alicia; Pardo Vargas, Rosa; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo (Wiley Blackwell, 2016)
      Objective The functional variant within the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene c.677C>T, producing alterations in folate metabolism, has been associated with the risk of non-syndromic cleft lip with or ...
    • Cáceres Rojas, Gabriela; Salamanca, Carlos; Krause, Bernardo J.; Recabarren, Andrea S.; Recabarren, Pamela; Pantoja Parada, Pedro; Leiva Villagra, Noemi; Pardo Vargas, Rosa; Santos, José Luis; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo (Future Medicine, 2020)
      Aim: To evaluate the risk of nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSOFCs) associated with LINE-1 methylation, as a marker of global DNA methylation, and the effect of MTHFR functional variants on this variable. Patients & methods: ...

      Salamanca, Carlos; González Hormazábal, Patricio; Recabarren, Andrea S.; Recabarren, Pamela A.; Pantoja, Roberto; Leiva Villagra, Noemí; Pardo Vargas, Rosa; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo (2020)
      Background TheS-adenosyl-methionine (SAM) availability is crucial for DNA methylation, an epigenetic mechanism involved in nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) expression. The aim of this study was ...
