Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

Assembled from catalogue records October 18, 2026

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 8 positions from 1 study, the largest recording 990 cases and 571,707 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry). Every figure comes from the studies themselves, gathered by code from the GWAS Catalog and updated as the records grow.

Prevalence
The records give study sizes, not how common Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy is, so this page gives no figure for it. For scale, the largest study here recorded 990 cases and 571,707 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry) (Verma A et al. 2024, PMID:39024449).
Inheritance
The records show a polygenic pattern — 8 positions from 1 study, each a common variant of small effect. How much of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy is inherited is not something they measure.

This is the record of what genome-wide association studies have found for Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy (the GWAS Catalog's "Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (PheCode 425.11)"): 8 positions reported by 1 study. The page is put together by code from the catalogue's records and the studies' own listings, and it is rebuilt whenever the records change, so it always reflects them as they stand.

The studies, one by one

Verma A et al. 2024, in Science — Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program. Sample in the catalogue's record: 990 cases and 571,707 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry). The 8 positions on this page from it: rs183946216 (near LINC02496), rs186052913 (NEK10), rs538718952 (near VN1R66P), rs187362465 (MEF2C-AS1), rs184776833 (MAGI2), rs1055895789 (LINC02865), rs182465157 (near RPSAP40), rs370686777 (RGS2-AS1). PMID:39024449.

Positions and mapped genes

The 8 positions lie in or near 8 genes: LINC02496, NEK10, VN1R66P, MEF2C-AS1, MAGI2, LINC02865, RPSAP40, RGS2-AS1. A gene named here is the catalogue's mapped location for a position, not a mechanism; the studies are cited above so that a reader can go to them.

Verma A et al. 2024 reported the smallest P value on this page — P = 2 × 10-13 — at rs183946216 near LINC02496.

What this page is, and is not

Association records say which positions differ, on average, between people with Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy and people without. They do not describe the condition, say how common it is, or tell anyone what to do, so this page does not either. For a single position, open its variant page: it gives that study's record in fixed sentences, with ClinVar's where there is one.

Clinical detail

Genotype and diagnosis

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy is diagnosed by a clinician — not from a genotype. None of the 8 variants on this page is used by any guideline to predict, screen for or diagnose it.

Everything here comes from population-level association records, put together by code. Those records compare groups of people; they do not examine anyone, and they give no guidance on care. For symptoms, testing or treatment, ask a clinician.

Questions about Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

What is Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy?

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy is the condition the GWAS Catalog files under "Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (PheCode 425.11)". This page does not define it in its own words; it lists what genome-wide studies have reported: 8 positions from 1 study, with each study's sample and citation.

Is Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy genetic?

Genome-wide studies have reported 8 associated positions; the largest study behind this page recorded 990 cases and 571,707 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry). Each common variant has a small effect, and an association in a population is not a cause in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy on this page?

The positions lie in or near 8 genes: LINC02496, NEK10, VN1R66P, MEF2C-AS1, MAGI2, LINC02865, RPSAP40, RGS2-AS1. A mapped gene is the catalogue's location for a position, not a mechanism.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy?

No. They are population-level findings of small effect. Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy is diagnosed by a clinician, and no guideline uses a genotype to predict it.
