Hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media

near C6orf15 · rs2270190

What the study found

Who was studied 123 Japanese ancestry cases, 8,380 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 2.52 times the odds of Hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media (95% confidence interval 1.86-3.4); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — between genes, 0.2 kb from C6orf15.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2270190

What is rs2270190?

rs2270190 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near C6orf15 gene. Published research associates it with hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2270190 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 rs2270190 come from?

GWAS Catalog, International heart journal 2026, PMID:42732936. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
