1. the cosegregation of an intronic rare variant in NOL4 in one family, and a haplotype consisting of three variants in the noncoding region of IRF6 (introns 1, 8 and 3'UTR) in the other family, are reported. PMID: 29666346
2. IRF6 defects are rare in Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency (IGHD) patients. PMID: 28593555
3. We detected a significant association between the derived variants, rs2013162 and rs2235371 and the distances between a facial bone plane indicated by distance from Nasion and Point A (NA plane) to soft tissue landmarks; the Subalare (NA-Sbal) and the Subnasale (NA-Sn) in the sagittal plane. IRF6 variants play an important role in the normal range of variation in nasolabial soft-tissue morphology. PMID: 29065370
4. The IRF6 rs2235371 T allele decreased the risk of NSCL/P in Chinese Han populations. PMID: 29017114
5. We detected a haplotype-based interaction for BMP4 and IRF6 genes for expression of the orofacial cleft phenotype. Although the MDR methods indicate that the effect of interaction between these genes appears to be mild, the presence of specific haplotype combinations conferring a higher risk for NSCL/P reveals the possible combined role of these genes in the pathogenesis of this prevalent birth defect. PMID: 28133786
6. IRF6 rs2235375 single nucleotide polymorphism play a major role in the pathogenesis and risk of developing non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate. PMID: 28712851
7. The data suggest that IRF6, TFAP2A, and GRHL3, among others, are shared in neural tube and orofacial development. PMID: 27933721
8. The epidermis of children with VWS baring mutations in IRF6 is thicker when compared with the epidermis of children with NSCLP carrying no IRF6 variants. We suggest that this phenotype is a result of increased keratinocyte proliferation in a cell-autonomous fashion. Our data are consistent with a previously described role for IRF6 in epidermal proliferation. PMID: 27115562
9. we performed an association study of AXIN2, BMP4 and IRF6 gene SNPs with Non-Syndromic Cleft Lip with or without Cleft Palate in an Iranian population and the findings proposed that BMP4 rs17563 polymorphism is associated with reduced risk against Non-Syndromic Cleft Lip with or without Cleft Palate. PMID: 29211286
10. Two novel mutations (Arg31Thr and Trp40Glyfs *23) in the IRF6 gene were identified to be causative for Van der Woude and popliteal pterygium syndromes in 6 Polish families. In the present study no association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms rs7552506, rs2013162, and rs2235375 and the cleft lip and/or palate phenotype was found. PMID: 25489771
11. Our results do not support the previously reported association between the A allele of rs642961 and the NSCL phenotype. However, in the VWS/PPS families, the A allele was a risk allele and was, in a large majority (>80%), transmitted on the same chromosome as the IRF6 mutation. PMID: 23394314
12. CCL5 and CXCL11 expression were also induced in response to the activation of the PKC pathway, and gene silencing experiments indicated that their inducible expression was dependent on RIPK4 and IRF6. Moreover, gene reporter assays suggested that RIPK4 induces CCL5 and CXCL11 expression by stimulating the transactivation of their promoters by IRF6. PMID: 27014863
