Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 21,297 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 9.45 mm3 higher; p = 3 × 10−14.
Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q26.13 — in an intron of EEF1AKMT2.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Hippocampal tail volume — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/C
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Hippocampal tail volume.
C/C
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Hippocampal tail volume compared to the general population.

Questions about rs2363340
What is rs2363340?
rs2363340 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LHPP gene. Published research associates it with hippocampal tail volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs2363340 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 rs2363340 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Mol Psychiatry 2018, PMID:30279459. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
