C-C motif chemokine 18 levels

near CCL18 · rs2015086

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.918 lower (95% confidence interval 0.88-0.95).

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 86% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q12 — between genes, 0 kb from CCL18.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of C-C motif chemokine 18 levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with C-C motif chemokine 18 levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of C-C motif chemokine 18 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2015086

What is rs2015086?

rs2015086 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CCL18 gene. Published research associates it with c-c motif chemokine 18 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2015086 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 rs2015086 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
