Opioid dependence

CNIH3 · rs10799590

What the study found

Who was studied 1,167 European ancestry opioid-dependent daily injector cases, 161 European ancestry opioid misusers (impeded progression) controls; replicated in 833 European ancestry opioid-dependent daily injector cases, 476 European ancestry opioid misusers (impeded progression) controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.56 times the odds of Opioid dependence (95% confidence interval 1.35-1.82); p = 4 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q42.12 — in an intron of CNIH3.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Opioid dependence. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Opioid dependence. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Opioid dependence. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10799590

What is rs10799590?

rs10799590 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CNIH3 gene. Published research associates it with opioid dependence. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10799590 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs10799590 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Molecular psychiatry 2016, PMID:26239289. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
