▶Genetic variants conferring susceptibility to gastroschisis: a phenomenon restricted to the interaction with the environment?Meta-analysisN=434Victor M. Salinas-Torres et al.(2018)· Pediatric Surgery International
This systematic review analyzed genetic associations with gastroschisis from 1980-2017, identifying 14 SNPs from 10 genes associated with crude risk and 30 SNPs from 14 genes with stratified risk. Four SNPs showed significant associations: rs4961 (ADD1, p=0.023), rs5443 (GNB3, p=0.002), rs1042713 (ADRB2, p=0.007), and rs1042714 (ADRB2, p=0.006). The findings suggest genetic susceptibility in gastroschisis is not restricted to gene-environment interactions, with blood pressure regulation genes playing a significant role in vascular disruption pathogenesis.
About ICAM5
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family. All ICAM proteins are type I transmembrane glycoproteins, contain 2-9 immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains, and bind to the leukocyte adhesion LFA-1 protein. This protein is expressed on the surface of telencephalic neurons and displays two types of adhesion activity, homophilic binding between neurons and heterophilic binding between neurons and leukocytes. It may be a critical component in neuron-microglial cell interactions in the course of normal development or as part of neurodegenerative diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
