FTLD-TDP subtype C

Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 467 European ancestry cases, 3,153 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 5.00 times the odds of FTLD-TDP subtype C (95% confidence interval 2.87-8.71); p = 1 × 10⁻⁸.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q14.2 — between genes, 11.8 kb from U6.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to FTLD-TDP subtype C. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

G/T One copy of the version the research linked to FTLD-TDP subtype C. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to FTLD-TDP subtype C. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs117642163

What is rs117642163?

rs117642163 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near U6 gene. Published research associates it with ftld-tdp subtype c. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117642163 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 rs117642163 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40280976. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
