“…Four TIMPs (TIMP1, TIMP2, TIMP3, and TIMP4) have been identified to inhibit active forms of MMPs [30] and in our study, 2 TIMPs (TFPI2 and TIM3) were found to be significantly upregulated by SATB2 while MMP3 was significantly downregulated, probably by these 2 TIMPs. The MMP3 gene was shown to be down-regulated in individuals with cleft lip and palate when compared to controls [31], consistent with the correlation between SATB2 mutation and cleft lip and palate [18]. …”

“…In this study, we examined the function of MMP3 (rs522616 and rs3025058) and TIMP2 (rs8179096) promoter variants, previously associated with NSCL/P (Letra et al, 2007(Letra et al, , 2012a. Our findings indicate that each of these variants has a different regulatory effect on gene transcription depending on the allele present.…”

“…41 In addition, previous studies have demonstrated that polymorphisms in MMP3 are associated with all types of cleft. 25,26 MMP3 also has been implicated in various types of cancer. 42,43 The polymorphism rs2761887 in BMP4 presented an association trend with the most severe case of oral cleft: cleft lip with palate.…”

“…23,24 In addition, genetic variations in MMP3 have been associated with oral clefts. 25,26 Furthermore, genetic studies of oral cleft have shown the association of genes that are also involved in cancer, raising a hypothesis that some genes might be involved in embryonic development and later in cancer development. 27,28 Therefore, in this study we examined whether families of oral cleft subjects have an increased risk for cancer.…”
