Hashimoto thyroiditis

VAV3 · rs4514263

What the study found

Who was studied 37,850 European, East Asian, African, South Asian, Middle Eastern, Admixed or unknown ancestry cases, 556,334 European, East Asian, African, South Asian, Middle Eastern, Admixed or unknown ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0708 log odds ratio higher (95% confidence interval 0.048-0.093); p = 5 × 10−10.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hashimoto thyroiditis. 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 Hashimoto thyroiditis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Hashimoto thyroiditis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4514263

What is rs4514263?

rs4514263 is a single position in the genome, in or near the VAV3 gene. Published research associates it with hashimoto thyroiditis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4514263 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 rs4514263 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:42527560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
