PPAP2B · rs61772578

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Medication use (agents acting on the renin-angiotensin system) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2019, PMID:31015401)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Medication use (agents acting on the renin-angiotensin system). (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2019, PMID:31015401)
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Medication use (agents acting on the renin-angiotensin system) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2019, PMID:31015401)

Questions about rs61772578

What is rs61772578?

rs61772578 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PPAP2B gene. Published research associates it with medication use (agents acting on the renin-angiotensin system). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs61772578 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 rs61772578 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2019, PMID:31015401. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
