Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−24, with 3 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
How this is scored
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 13,471 African American or Afro-Caribbean and African ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.13 SD units lower (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.16); p = 4 × 10−25.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q31.3 — in an intron of ITGA4.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs13029144 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ITGA4 gene. Published research associates it with monocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs13029144 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts, Monocyte Count. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs13029144 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 rs13029144 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
