Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 9,232 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 2,318 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 124 mm3 lower (95% confidence interval 86.76-160.84); p = 5 × 10−11.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q14.3 — in an intron of MSRB3.
What each result means
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Hippocampal volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Hippocampal volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Hippocampal volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
Papers in Europe PMC whose title or abstract names both this rsID and that subject. A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together — it is not a claim that this position explains the subject.
Questions about rs17178006
What is rs17178006?
rs17178006 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MSRB3 gene. Published research associates it with hippocampal volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What do people read about alongside rs17178006?
Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (1 papers), brain and memory (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.
Does having rs17178006 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 rs17178006 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22504421. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
