Neutrophil count

CARINH · rs2522051

What the study found

Who was studied 519,288 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.024 SD unit higher (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.028); p = 2 × 10−35.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 45% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q31.1 — in an intron of CARINH.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Neutrophil count compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Neutrophil count.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Neutrophil count — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2522051

What is rs2522051?

rs2522051 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CARINH gene. Published research associates it with neutrophil count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2522051 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 rs2522051 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
