What the study found

Who was studied 817 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 4.41 higher (95% confidence interval 2.96-5.86); p = 4 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q32.1 — in an intron of AHCYL2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11766298

What is rs11766298?

rs11766298 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AHCYL2 gene. Published research associates it with response to fenofibrate. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11766298 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cholesterol (LDL, HDL and Total). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does rs11766298 affect how medicines work?

AHCYL2 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Fenofibrate. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.

Does having rs11766298 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 rs11766298 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Pharmacogenet Genomics 2012, PMID:22890011. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
