Pepsinogen I/II ratio

PSCA · rs2920283

What the study found

Who was studied 3,385 Japanese ancestry individuals; replicated in 2,885 Japanese ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.143 higher (95% confidence interval 0.1-0.18); p = 4 × 10−27.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 39% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.3 — in a regulatory region of PSCA.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Pepsinogen I/II ratio. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Pepsinogen I/II ratio. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Pepsinogen I/II ratio. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2920283

What is rs2920283?

rs2920283 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PSCA gene. Published research associates it with pepsinogen i/ii ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2920283 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 rs2920283 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Carcinogenesis 2019, PMID:30753327. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
