Rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide seropositive)

STAT4 · rs140675301

Where this position leads

Condition: Rheumatoid Arthritis

What the study found

Who was studied 14,551 European ancestry cases, 846,260 European ancestry controls, 3,468 cases, 145,344 controls.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10⁻⁹.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q32.2 — a missense change in STAT4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide seropositive). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide seropositive). That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide seropositive). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs140675301

What is rs140675301?

rs140675301 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STAT4 gene. Published research associates it with rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide seropositive). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs140675301 linked to?

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

Does having rs140675301 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 rs140675301 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Annals of the rheumatic diseases 2022, PMID:35470158. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
