Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (occupational environmental exposures interaction)

PDE4D · rs159497

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (occupational environmental exposures interaction) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, J Allergy Clin Immunol 2015, PMID:25979521)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (occupational environmental exposures interaction). (GWAS Catalog, J Allergy Clin Immunol 2015, PMID:25979521)
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (occupational environmental exposures interaction) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, J Allergy Clin Immunol 2015, PMID:25979521)

Questions about rs159497

What is rs159497?

rs159497 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PDE4D gene. Published research associates it with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (occupational environmental exposures interaction). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs159497 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 rs159497 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Allergy Clin Immunol 2015, PMID:25979521. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
