rs61750581 — VWF S1613P
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele G Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Women's Health, Thrombophilia

A2 domain missense variant in von Willebrand factor associated with type 2A von Willebrand disease; the proline substitution destabilizes the A2 domain, increasing susceptibility to ADAMTS13 proteolysis and depleting high-molecular-weight multimers required for platelet adhesion

rs6445975 — PXK
Chromosome 3 Risk Allele G Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Lupus, Autoimmune, B-Cell Signaling, Inflammation, Immune System, T-Cell Regulation

Intronic PXK variant; the G allele is a replicated GWAS risk allele for systemic lupus erythematosus in Europeans, acting through impaired receptor endocytosis and disrupted B-cell immune signalling

rs6852441 — SLC2A9
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele C Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Cardiovascular, Diet, Kidney

Intronic SLC2A9 variant tagging a urate-transport regulatory haplotype; the protective T allele (~48% global frequency) is enriched in populations with lower gout prevalence and is associated with more efficient renal urate clearance, while the risk C allele — common in East Asians (~90%) where gout prevalence is highest — tags reduced GLUT9-mediated reabsorption efficiency and elevated serum uric acid

rs7167936 — CYP19A1 CYP19A1 intronic variant
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele G Category Reproductive Hormones Aromatase, Estrogen, Breast Cancer, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Cancer Risk

Intronic variant near the CYP19A1 promoter region, falling within MIR4713HG but mapping to the CYP19A1 RefSeqGene locus; associated with breast cancer histological grade and tumor size in a Swedish cohort, consistent with its position in the aromatase regulatory zone

rs730882094 — LDLR Asn316Ser (N316S)
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele G Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cardiovascular, LDL Cholesterol, Atherosclerosis, Heart Disease, Statins, Genetic Counseling

Rare likely-pathogenic missense variant in the LDLR EGF-like repeat domain causing impaired LDL receptor processing and familial hypercholesterolemia with severely elevated LDL-C and premature coronary artery disease risk

Continue reading
rs7770370 — HLA-DPB1
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune HLA, Infectious Disease, Liver Disease, Vaccination, Immune & Antiviral, Immune Response

Intronic tag SNP in HLA-DPB1 (and upstream of HLA-DPA1) that marks the HLA-DP haplotype controlling antigen-presenting cell surface expression; the G allele is strongly associated with chronic hepatitis B infection susceptibility and impaired hepatitis B vaccine antibody response across multiple populations

rs7852296 — DENND1A DENND1A PCOS Susceptibility Variant
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele A Category Fertility & Ovarian Function PCOS, Hormones, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Steroid Hormones, Testosterone

An intronic variant in the DENND1A locus on chromosome 9q33.3, a robustly replicated PCOS susceptibility region; the A allele tags regulatory variation that drives DENND1A overexpression in theca cells, elevating androgen biosynthesis

Continue reading
rs1342326 — IL33 IL33 regulatory variant
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele C Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Asthma, Inflammation, Innate Immunity, Autoimmune, Biologic Therapy, Lung Health

Regulatory variant upstream of IL33; the C allele elevates IL-33 expression, amplifying the alarmin signal through the ST2 receptor and raising susceptibility to asthma, allergic rhinitis, hay fever, and eosinophilic airway inflammation

Continue reading
rs1532278 — CLU CLU Alzheimer's risk variant
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele C Category Neurology & Cognition Alzheimer's, Brain Health, Neurodegeneration, Cognitive Decline, Neuroinflammation, Neuroprotection

Intronic regulatory variant in CLU (clusterin/apolipoprotein J) that controls neuronal clusterin expression; the protective T allele elevates CLU transcription, enhancing amyloid-beta clearance across the blood-brain barrier and reducing Alzheimer's disease risk

Continue reading
rs1537373 — CDKN2B-AS1 ANRIL T2D/Cardiovascular Variant
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele T Category Blood Sugar & Diabetes Cardiovascular, Diabetes, Pancreatic Beta Cell, Atherosclerosis, Insulin, Cancer Risk

Regulatory intronic variant within ANRIL (CDKN2B-AS1) at the 9p21.3 locus; the T risk allele is associated with substantially elevated risk of myocardial infarction, brain aneurysm, and type 2 diabetes through ANRIL-mediated dysregulation of cellular senescence and beta-cell proliferation
