Intrinsic epigenetic age acceleration

PIPOX · rs7211375

What the study found

Who was studied 6,148 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 3.39 lower (95% confidence interval 2.73-4.06); p = 1 × 10−23.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 98% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q11.2 — in an intron of PIPOX.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7211375

What is rs7211375?

rs7211375 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PIPOX gene. Published research associates it with intrinsic epigenetic age acceleration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7211375 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 rs7211375 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genome biology 2021, PMID:34187551. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
