What the study found

Who was studied 2,344 Turkish ancestry cases, 1,920 Turkish ancestry controls, 437 European ancestry cases, 3,325 European ancestry controls, 312 East Asian ancestry cases, 398 East Asian ancestry controls, 104 Tunisian ancestry cases, 142 Tunisian ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 9 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — in an intron of CCR3.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Behcet's disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Behcet's disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Behcet's disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2087726

What is rs2087726?

rs2087726 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCR3 gene. Published research associates it with behcet's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2087726 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 rs2087726 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Arthritis & rheumatology (Hoboken, N.J.) 2021, PMID:33393726. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
