Thyroid hormone levels

NETO1 · rs7240777

Where this position leads

Condition: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels

What the study found

Who was studied up to 14,459 European ancestry females, up to 10,936 European ancestry males, up to 433 Old Order Amish females, up to 592 Old Order Amish males.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.083 lower (95% confidence interval 0.054-0.112); p = 3 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 56% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q22.3 — inside LOC105372190.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Thyroid hormone levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Thyroid hormone levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Thyroid hormone levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7240777

What is rs7240777?

rs7240777 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NETO1 gene. Published research associates it with thyroid hormone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7240777 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs7240777 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 rs7240777 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2013, PMID:23408906. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
