What the study found

Who was studied 2,966 European ancestry cases, 40,941 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.29 times the odds of Low-grade serous and serous borderline ovarian cancer (95% confidence interval 1.18179536270929-1.41470527615789); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.33 — between genes, 2.6 kb from LOC102724351.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Low-grade serous and serous borderline ovarian cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Low-grade serous and serous borderline ovarian cancer.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Low-grade serous and serous borderline ovarian cancer compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7902587

What is rs7902587?

rs7902587 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near STN1 gene. Published research associates it with low-grade serous and serous borderline ovarian 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 rs7902587 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Ovarian Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs7902587 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 rs7902587 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28346442. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
