Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease liability (machine learning-based score)

PIEZO1 · rs78465403

What the study found

Who was studied 325,027 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0188 lower (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.025); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.3 — in an intron of PIEZO1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease liability (machine learning-based score). 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 Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease liability (machine learning-based score). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease liability (machine learning-based score). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs78465403

What is rs78465403?

rs78465403 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PIEZO1 gene. Published research associates it with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease liability (machine learning-based score). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78465403 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 rs78465403 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:37069358. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
