Immunoglobulin A levels

TNFSF4 · rs4090390

What the study found

Who was studied 85,204 European or unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0454 SD unit higher (95% confidence interval 0.034-0.057); p = 1 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q25.1 — in an intron of TNFSF4.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4090390

What is rs4090390?

rs4090390 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TNFSF4 gene. Published research associates it with immunoglobulin a levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4090390 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 rs4090390 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genes and immunity 2026, PMID:42642615. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
