Mean volume of bilateral amygdala

near LINC02808 · rs4086663

What the study found

Who was studied 35,474 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0393 lower (95% confidence interval 0.028-0.05); p = 6 × 10−12.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p32.3 — between genes, 26.1 kb from LINC02808.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4086663

What is rs4086663?

rs4086663 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02808 gene. Published research associates it with mean volume of bilateral amygdala. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4086663 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 rs4086663 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:40097784. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
