Who was studied 16,491 European ancestry cases, 1,202,106 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.224 lower (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.26); p = 7 × 10−17.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — between genes, 1 kb from HLA-B.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2523615
What is rs2523615?
rs2523615 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-B gene. Published research associates it with systemic lupus erythematosus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs2523615 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs2523615 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 rs2523615 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society 2026, PMID:42581184. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
