What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Prostate cancer aggressiveness — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25939597)
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Prostate cancer aggressiveness. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25939597)
C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Prostate cancer aggressiveness compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25939597)

Questions about rs35148638

What is rs35148638?

rs35148638 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RASA1 gene. Published research associates it with prostate cancer aggressiveness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs35148638 linked to?

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

Does having rs35148638 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 rs35148638 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25939597. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
