What the study found

Who was studied 129,680 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0161 higher (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.022); p = 5 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q23.2 — in an intron of WASHC3.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Forced vital capacity (FVC). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Forced vital capacity (FVC). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Forced vital capacity (FVC). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10860837

What is rs10860837?

rs10860837 is a single position in the genome, in or near the WASHC3 gene. Published research associates it with forced vital capacity (fvc). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10860837 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Pulmonary Function (Lung Capacity). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10860837 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 rs10860837 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:41565855. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
