What the study found

Who was studied 18,034 African or African American cases, 22,104 African or African American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.48 times the odds of Breast cancer (95% confidence interval 1.3-1.7); p = 1 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q24 — a missense change in ARHGEF38.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs61751053

What is rs61751053?

rs61751053 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARHGEF38 gene. Published research associates it with breast cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs61751053 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Breast Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs61751053 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 rs61751053 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:38741014. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
