Familial squamous cell lung carcinoma

near KHSRPP1 · rs12686364

What the study found

Who was studied 367 European ancestry cases, 31,563 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 8.49 times the odds of Familial squamous cell lung carcinoma (95% confidence interval 4.12-17.49); p = 6 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p21.3 — between genes, 25.1 kb from KHSRPP1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Familial squamous cell lung carcinoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Familial squamous cell lung carcinoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Familial squamous cell lung carcinoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12686364

What is rs12686364?

rs12686364 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KHSRPP1 gene. Published research associates it with familial squamous cell lung carcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12686364 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 rs12686364 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Carcinogenesis 2018, PMID:29924316. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
