C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Platelet-derived growth factor BB levels compared to the general population.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Platelet-derived growth factor BB levels.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Platelet-derived growth factor BB levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2324229
What is rs2324229?
rs2324229 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ME1 gene. Published research associates it with platelet-derived growth factor bb levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs2324229 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to MIP-1b (CCL4) Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs2324229 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 rs2324229 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2016, PMID:27989323. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
