Cerebrospinal P-tau181p levels

PCDH8 · rs9527039

What the study found

Who was studied 3,146 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.061 lower (95% confidence interval 0.041-0.081); p = 6 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 7% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q14.3 — between genes, 81.9 kb from PCDH8.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal P-tau181p levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal P-tau181p levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal P-tau181p levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9527039

What is rs9527039?

rs9527039 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PCDH8 gene. Published research associates it with cerebrospinal p-tau181p levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9527039 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 rs9527039 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Acta Neuropathol 2017, PMID:28247064. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
