Questions about rs12194182

What is rs12194182?

rs12194182 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC22A3 gene. Published research associates it with prostate cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12194182 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Prostate Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs12194182 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 rs12194182 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32887889. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
