Brain memantine levels

near TTL · rs142096021

What the study found

Who was studied 820 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.79 lower (95% confidence interval 1.24-2.34); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q14.1 — between genes, 20 kb from TTL.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Brain memantine levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Brain memantine levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Brain memantine levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs142096021

What is rs142096021?

rs142096021 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TTL gene. Published research associates it with brain memantine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs142096021 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 rs142096021 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528826. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
