rs1927911 — TLR4
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele G Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Inflammation, Cardiovascular, Innate Immunity, Atherosclerosis, Immune Response, Heart Disease

Intronic TLR4 variant in the innate immune receptor gene; the A allele associates with modestly reduced vascular inflammation and lower risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction, while the common GG genotype is linked to higher atherosclerotic cerebral infarction risk

rs2229765 — IGF1R c.3179G>A (E1013E)
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele G Category Longevity & Aging Longevity, Insulin, Growth Factors, Aging, Diet

Synonymous IGF1R variant associated with lower circulating IGF-1 levels and enrichment in long-lived populations — affects mRNA splicing despite preserving the amino acid sequence

Continue reading
rs2249891 — ABCA1
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele G Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Fat Metabolism, HDL Cholesterol

Intronic ABCA1 variant associated with lower HDL-cholesterol susceptibility and coronary heart disease risk at one of the most replicated lipid GWAS loci

rs2301436 — FGFR1OP
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Autoimmune, Crohn's Disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, IBD, Immune & Autoimmune, Inflammation

Intronic variant in FGFR1OP (CEP43) at the RNASET2-FGFR1OP-CCR6 autoimmune susceptibility locus, with the T allele increasing risk for Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and related autoimmune conditions

rs2568958 — NEGR1 NEGR1 depression/BMI variant
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele G Category Mood & Behavior Depression, Mood, Appetite, Obesity, Neuroplasticity, Brain Health

Intergenic tag SNP near NEGR1 associated with elevated BMI and major depression risk through hypothalamic NEGR1 expression — one of the most replicated obesity GWAS loci and a genome-wide significant depression locus

rs267606898 — MT-ND5
Chromosome MT Risk Allele A Category Metabolic Enzymes & Rare Disorders Mitochondria, Energy Metabolism, Neurodegeneration, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Fatigue

Heteroplasmic missense variant in the mitochondrially encoded ND5 subunit of complex I, causing variable-penetrance mitochondrial disease including Leigh syndrome, MELAS, and Leber optic atrophy depending on mutation load.

rs3184504 — SH2B3 R262W
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Coronary Artery Disease & Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Autoimmune, Blood Pressure, Thrombosis, Longevity, Thrombophilia

Pleiotropic missense variant reducing SH2B3 inhibitory function, increasing blood pressure, CAD risk, platelet count, and susceptibility to autoimmune diseases

Continue reading
rs33996649 — PTPN22 R263Q
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Immune System, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Immune & Autoimmune

Protective loss-of-function variant in the PTPN22 catalytic domain that reduces phosphatase activity and lowers risk of SLE, RA, and ulcerative colitis

Continue reading
rs371898076 — MYH7 Arg663His (R663H)
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele T Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status, Fibrosis

Pathogenic missense variant in the myosin motor domain causing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with a 47% lifetime atrial fibrillation rate in affected adults; requires family cardiac screening

Continue reading
rs3743930 — MEFV E148Q
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category TNF, NF-kB & Inflammatory Cytokines Innate Immunity, Inflammation, Autoimmune, Ancestry-Specific, Amyloidosis, Carrier Status

Exon 2 missense variant in the inflammasome regulator pyrin; the most common and most debated MEFV variant, classified as likely benign by most clinical labs but associated with mild FMF-like symptoms in some homozygous carriers, especially in Middle Eastern and East/South Asian populations
