Pulmonary arterial hypertension

HLA-DPA1 · rs2856830

Where this position leads

Condition: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

What the study found

Who was studied 2,085 European ancestry cases, 9,659 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.56 times the odds of Pulmonary arterial hypertension (95% confidence interval 1.42-1.71); p = 8 × 10⁻²⁰.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — in an intron of HLA-DPA1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pulmonary arterial hypertension compared to the general population.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pulmonary arterial hypertension.

T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pulmonary arterial hypertension — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2856830

What is rs2856830?

rs2856830 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HLA-DPA1 gene. Published research associates it with pulmonary arterial hypertension. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2856830 linked to?

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

Does having rs2856830 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 rs2856830 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Lancet Respir Med 2018, PMID:30527956. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
