SLCO1B1 · rs12317268
Where this position leads
Drugs: Statins, Ticagrelor
What the study found
Who was studied 3,412 European ancestry individuals.
The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.441 higher (95% confidence interval 0.36-0.52); p = 5 × 10−29.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p12.1 — in an intron of SLCO1B1.
rs12317268 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLCO1B1 gene. Published research associates it with plasma deoxycholic acid 12-sulfate* levels in chronic kidney disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
SLCO1B1 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Statins, Ticagrelor. 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.
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.
