Who was studied 39,664 European ancestry cases, 119,158 European ancestry controls, 2,438 African ancestry cases, 62,112 African ancestry controls; replicated in 17,417 European ancestry cases, 13,599 European ancestry controls, 1,987 African ancestry cases, 3,779 African ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele carried 0.91 times the odds of Lung cancer (95% confidence interval 0.891-0.934); p = 1 × 10−14.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 82% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p21.3 — between genes, 25.9 kb from MTAP.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Lung cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Lung cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Lung cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs7868253
What is rs7868253?
rs7868253 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MTAP gene. Published research associates it with lung cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs7868253 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Lung Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs7868253 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 rs7868253 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39366959. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
