Androstenedione levels

CYP11B2 · rs3802230

What the study found

Who was studied 3,549 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0934 lower (95% confidence interval 0.074-0.113); p = 3 × 10−20.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of CYP11B2.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Androstenedione levels compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Androstenedione levels.
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Androstenedione levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs3802230

What is rs3802230?

rs3802230 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CYP11B2 gene. Published research associates it with androstenedione levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3802230 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 rs3802230 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Metabolites 2021, PMID:34822396. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
