Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-?) type 1 receptor (also known as activin receptor-like kinase 5, ALK5) is expressed in palatal tissue during embryogenesis. Experimental studies in transgenic mice with a genetic deletion of Alk5 showed that TGF-? type 1 receptor is required for upper lip and midline fusion of the hard and soft palate. In humans, association of TGF-? type 1 receptor gene (TGFBR1) and the development of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) had been observed in a multiethnic sample of Chinese, Philippine, Indian and Turkish families. In order to re-evaluate the relevance of these findings, we carried out a family-based association study among 218 NSCL/P families of Central European descent.
