Eosinophil percentage of white cells variance

IL17RD · rs546497406

What the study found

Who was studied 406,416 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.18 higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.24); p = 4 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p14.3 — in an intron of IL17RD.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs546497406

What is rs546497406?

rs546497406 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IL17RD gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil percentage of white cells variance. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs546497406 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 rs546497406 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40335489. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
