What the study found

Who was studied 50,823 European ancestry individuals, 703 East Asian ancestry individuals, 6,476 African American individuals, 1,407 Hispanic individuals; replicated in 71,921 European ancestry individuals, 9,992 Indian Asian ancestry individuals, 2,685 African American/Afro-Caribbean individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.95 higher (95% confidence interval 1.93-3.96); p = 1 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 7% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q21.11 — in an intron of SEMA3C.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs60839105

What is rs60839105?

rs60839105 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SEMA3C gene. Published research associates it with hdl cholesterol. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs60839105 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cholesterol (LDL, HDL and Total). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs60839105 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 rs60839105 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Med Genet 2016, PMID:27036123. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
