Who was studied 9,849 European ancestry individuals, 894 African ancestry individuals, 271 individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.22 lower; p = 5 × 10−17.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 45% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q31.3 — in an intron of ITGA4.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs2124440 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ITGA4 gene. Published research associates it with monocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs2124440 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts, Monocyte Count. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs2124440 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 rs2124440 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2013, PMID:23314186. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
