NELL1 · rs184837117
Where this position leads
Drug: Hydrochlorothiazide
Strength of the evidence
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−17, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.
The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.456 lower (95% confidence interval 0.35-0.56); p = 2 × 10−17.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.1 — in an intron of NELL1.
rs184837117 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NELL1 gene. Published research associates it with protein kinase c-binding protein nell1 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
NELL1 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Hydrochlorothiazide. 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.
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.
