G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Stem cell factor levels compared to the general population.
G/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Stem cell factor levels.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Stem cell factor levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1557570
What is rs1557570?
rs1557570 is a single position in the genome, in or near the F5 gene. Published research associates it with stem cell factor levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1557570 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to MIP-1b (CCL4) Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does rs1557570 affect how medicines work?
F5 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Combined hormonal contraceptives. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.
Does having rs1557570 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 rs1557570 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2016, PMID:27989323. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
