What the study found

Who was studied 1,866 Japanese ancestry cases, 195,745 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.44 times the odds of Hepatocellular carcinoma (95% confidence interval 1.284266499-1.623333001); p = 8 × 10−10.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.2 — between genes, 0.2 kb from IFNL4.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs8107030

What is rs8107030?

rs8107030 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near IFNL4 gene. Published research associates it with hepatocellular carcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs8107030 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to HBV-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs8107030 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 rs8107030 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32514122. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
