rs2305957 — HSPA4L
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Male Fertility, Sperm Quality, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Embryo Development

Intronic variant in HSPA4L within a chromosome 4 haplotype spanning PLK4; the A allele is associated with increased mitotic-origin embryo aneuploidy, reduced blastocyst formation in IVF, and elevated early recurrent miscarriage risk in women; HSPA4L itself is highly expressed in spermatogenic cells and required for normal sperm production

Chromosome 11 Risk Allele A Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Autoimmune, T-Cell Regulation, Inflammation, Asthma, Immune Function, Microbiome

Regulatory variant in a distal enhancer at 11q13.5 that controls GARP expression on regulatory T cells, impairing TGF-beta-mediated immune tolerance and increasing risk for asthma, allergic rhinitis, and inflammatory bowel disease

Continue reading
rs11362 — DEFB1 G-20A
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Innate Immunity, Gut Health, Immune & Gut, Crohn's Disease, Dental & Oral Health, Zinc

5' UTR variant in the beta-defensin 1 gene that reduces antimicrobial peptide expression in gut and mucosal epithelium, increasing susceptibility to colonic Crohn's disease and dental caries
