What the study found

Who was studied 43,639 European ancestry cases, 506,798 European ancestry controls; replicated in 1,089 cases, 5,228 controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 0.95 times the odds of Gallstone disease (95% confidence interval 0.94-0.96); p = 6 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.3 — a missense change in NUP153.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2228375

What is rs2228375?

rs2228375 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NUP153 gene. Published research associates it with gallstone disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2228375 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gallstone Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2228375 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 rs2228375 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hepatology (Baltimore, Md.) 2022, PMID:34651315. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
