rs12720356 — TYK2 Ile684Ser
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele A Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, JAK-STAT Signaling, Interferon, Inflammation, Psoriasis, Rheumatoid Arthritis

A missense variant in the TYK2 pseudokinase (JH2) domain that partially impairs TYK2 catalytic regulation, reducing IL-12-stimulated STAT4 signaling and conferring independent protection against rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and SLE

rs13154066 — NPR3
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele C Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Preeclampsia, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Blood Pressure, Cardiovascular

Regulatory variant near the NPR3 natriuretic peptide clearance receptor gene associated with gestational hypertension and preeclampsia risk; the C allele may increase NPR3-mediated peptide clearance, impairing vasodilatory natriuretic signaling during pregnancy

rs13196377 — TRAF3IP2 Intronic haplotype member
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Immune & Gut, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Psoriasis, Arthritis, Biologic Therapy

Intronic tagging variant in the TRAF3IP2/TRAF3IP2-AS1 locus that distinguishes two independent psoriasis risk haplotypes; the minor A allele marks a secondary haplotype (OR=1.8 for psoriasis) while the common G allele co-segregates with the primary D10N risk haplotype (OR=2.7); together the four-SNP set provides full haplotype coverage at this IL-17 adaptor locus

Continue reading
rs13900 — CCL2 CCL2 3'UTR variant
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele T Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Innate Immunity, Immune Response

3'UTR variant that increases CCL2 mRNA stability via enhanced HuR binding, elevating MCP-1 protein output and monocyte recruitment in arterial inflammation

Continue reading
rs150090666 — PDE3B PDE3B R783X
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele T Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Lipid Metabolism, Fat Distribution, Cardiovascular, HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Metabolic

Loss-of-function variant in phosphodiesterase 3B — carriers have enhanced cAMP-mediated lipolysis, higher HDL cholesterol, lower triglycerides, and reduced cardiovascular disease risk
