rs62396274 Drug: Abacavir Abacavir Drug Drug: Allopurinol Allopurinol Drug Drug: Carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine Carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine Drug rs62396274 rs62396274 HLA-B

What the study found

Who was studied 466 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.6 higher (95% confidence interval 1.25-1.95); p = 5 × 10−18.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 3% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — in an intron of HLA-B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Stromal cell-derived factor 2 level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (15333_11). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Stromal cell-derived factor 2 level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (15333_11). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Stromal cell-derived factor 2 level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (15333_11). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62396274

What is rs62396274?

rs62396274 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HLA-B gene. Published research associates it with stromal cell-derived factor 2 level in chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (15333_11). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does rs62396274 affect how medicines work?

HLA-B carries pharmacogenomic findings for Abacavir, Allopurinol, Carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.

Does having rs62396274 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 rs62396274 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Kidney international 2022, PMID:35870639. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
