rs564398 — CDKN2B-AS1
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele T Category Blood Sugar & Diabetes Diabetes, Pancreatic Beta Cell, Insulin, Metabolic, Cardiovascular, Cancer Risk

Secondary T2D risk variant at the 9p21 CDKN2A/B locus within ANRIL (CDKN2B-AS1); the T risk allele impairs glucose-stimulated pancreatic beta-cell proliferation, conferring a modest but independently replicated ~8% increased type 2 diabetes risk per allele

rs7675998 — NAF1
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Longevity & Aging Telomere Biology, Longevity, Cardiovascular, Cancer Risk, Aging

Regulatory variant near the NAF1 telomerase assembly gene associated with shorter telomeres and higher cardiovascular risk

rs78534766 — ADCY7 ADCY7 D439E
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele A Category Hormones & Sleep Thyroid, Hormones & Thyroid, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Immune & Autoimmune, Immune Function

Low-frequency missense variant in adenylyl cyclase 7 that reduces cAMP synthesis by 40%, skews immune cells toward a pro-inflammatory Th2 phenotype, and is the strongest non-HLA coding risk factor for ulcerative colitis

Continue reading
rs953413 — ELOVL2
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Omega-3, Lipid Metabolism, Nutrition & Metabolism, Cardiovascular, Aging, Liver Health

Intronic enhancer variant in ELOVL2 that controls transcription factor binding to the ELOVL2 promoter, with the A allele reducing elongase-2 expression and impairing EPA-to-DHA conversion; the lead InCHIANTI GWAS signal for plasma EPA levels and a modifier of sex-specific DHA response to omega-3 supplementation

Continue reading
rs2297839 — CHI3L1 CHI3L1 Intron Variant
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele C Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Asthma, Inflammation, Biomarkers, Lung Health, Hypertension, Immune Response

Intronic variant in CHI3L1 associated with circulating YKL-40 levels and modulation of hypertension risk; the T allele is linked to lower YKL-40 output and a reduced risk of hypertension, extending the known allergy-relevant inflammatory axis of the CHI3L1 locus into cardiovascular biology

Continue reading
rs2583988 — SNCA
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele T Category Neurology & Cognition Neurological Risk, Parkinson's, Neuroprotection, Brain Health, Oxidative Stress, Cognitive Decline

SNCA upstream regulatory variant (near gene-5) that is part of the 4-SNP SNCA risk haplotype (OR 2.51 for PD) and shows an independent TT homozygote association with Parkinson's disease risk and cognitive impairment

Continue reading
rs3765467 — GLP1R Arg131Gln
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Pharmacogenomics Drug Response, Diabetes, Obesity, Pharmacogenomics

Missense variant in the GLP-1 receptor that alters drug response to GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic, Wegovy, Saxenda) and DPP-4 inhibitors, with genome-wide significant protection against type 2 diabetes in East Asians

Continue reading
rs4880 — SOD2 Val16Ala
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Methylation & Detox Detoxification, Oxidative Stress, Antioxidants, Cardiovascular, Mitochondria

Primary mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme - variant reduces superoxide detoxification in mitochondria
