What the study found

Who was studied 17,389 European ancestry cases, 240,341 European ancestry controls, 6,325 East Asian ancestry cases, 73,225 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0624 lower (95% confidence interval 0.041-0.083); p = 6 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q11.2 — in an intron of AQP4-AS1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs232320

What is rs232320?

rs232320 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AQP4-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with breast cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs232320 linked to?

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

Does having rs232320 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 rs232320 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
