What the study found

Who was studied 21,731 East Asian ancestry cases, 47,444 East Asian ancestry controls, 78,473 European ancestry cases, 107,143 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.121 lower (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.14); p = 1 × 10−53.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q13.3 — between genes, 9.4 kb from GREM1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1554865

What is rs1554865?

rs1554865 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near GREM1 gene. Published research associates it with colorectal cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1554865 linked to?

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

Does having rs1554865 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 rs1554865 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36539618. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
