Vascular endothelial growth factor levels

AS1 · rs7043199

What the study found

Who was studied 9541 European ancestry individuals, 1,115 Cilento (founder/genetic isolated) individuals, 897 Ogliastran (founder/genetic isolated) individuals, 1,759 Val Borbera (founder/genetic isolated) individuals; replicated in 2,141 European ancestry individuals, 659 Sorbian (founder/genetic isolated) individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.1 lower (95% confidence interval 0.075-0.125); p = 4 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 21% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p24.2 — in a regulatory region of VLDLR-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Vascular endothelial growth factor levels. 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 Vascular endothelial growth factor levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Vascular endothelial growth factor levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7043199

What is rs7043199?

rs7043199 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AS1 gene. Published research associates it with vascular endothelial growth factor levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7043199 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 rs7043199 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS genetics 2016, PMID:26910538. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
