Sporadic neuroblastoma

CPZ · rs3796727

What the study found

Who was studied 2,101 European ancestry child cases, 4,202 European ancestry controls; replicated in 365 African American child cases, 2,491 African American controls, 427 European ancestry cases, 783 European ancestry controls, 371 cases, 1,122 controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.30 times the odds of Sporadic neuroblastoma (95% confidence interval 1.21-1.40); p = 1 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 30% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p16.1 — in an intron of GPR78.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Sporadic neuroblastoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Sporadic neuroblastoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Sporadic neuroblastoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs3796727

What is rs3796727?

rs3796727 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CPZ gene. Published research associates it with sporadic neuroblastoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3796727 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 rs3796727 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS genetics 2017, PMID:28545128. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
