Outline of Final Research Achievements |
five loci (1q32.2, 1p22.3, 6q23.2, 7q11.22 and 15q22.22) were likely to be as novel susceptibility regions of mandibular prognathism. PLXNA2, SSX2IP, TARID, CALN1 and RORA genes were considered as a genetic candidate. PLXNA2 gene is a gene encoding semaphorin co-receptors, and the relations to bone metabolism are reported in semaphorin 3A. It has been reported that SSX2IP gene is related to a Synovium Sarcoma and RORA gene has some kind of functions in bone metabolism. We speculate that these genes may be also associated with mandibular prognathism.
