rs2153157 — SYCP2L SYCP2L splice-efficiency variant
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category Fertility & Ovarian Function Ovarian Reserve, Menopause, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Women's Health, Genomic Stability

Intronic SYCP2L variant in a U12-type minor intron; the A allele splices more efficiently in oocytes, raising SYCP2L expression and supporting primordial follicle survival — the G allele reduces expression and associates with lower anti-Müllerian hormone levels and earlier natural menopause

rs2187668 — HLA-DQA1 DQ2.5 tag
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune Immune & Autoimmune, Celiac Disease, Gluten Sensitivity, Type 1 Diabetes, Autoimmunity, HLA

Tag SNP for HLA-DQ2.5 haplotype, the strongest genetic risk factor for celiac disease and associated with multiple autoimmune conditions

rs2269475 — AIF1 AIF1 Arg69Trp
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Autoimmune, Inflammation, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Macrophage, MHC Antigen Presentation, Immune Response

Missense variant in allograft inflammatory factor 1 (Iba1), a macrophage-expressed calcium-binding protein in the MHC class III region, associated with rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility and systemic sclerosis

rs2270915 — NPR3 N521D
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele G Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Cardiovascular, Blood Pressure, Hypertension, Heart Disease, Salt Sensitivity

Missense variant in NPR3 clearance receptor disrupting Gi protein coupling, independently associated with diastolic dysfunction (OR 1.94) and reduced salt-sensitivity of blood pressure

rs2279744 — MDM2 SNP309 T>G
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele G Category Cancer Risk Cancer Risk, p53 Pathway, Tumor Suppressor, Cancer Screening

Regulatory variant in the MDM2 promoter that increases Sp1 transcription factor binding, raising MDM2 levels and accelerating p53 degradation — associated with earlier age of cancer onset

rs2288904 — SLC44A2 R154Q
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele G Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Thrombosis, Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Innate Immunity, Blood Thinners, Thrombophilia

Missense variant that impairs platelet-neutrophil binding and blocks flow-dependent NETosis; carriers of the Q154 (A) allele have ~15–30% reduced VTE risk

Continue reading
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

rs2968864 — KCNH2 KCNH2 QT interval GWAS variant (7q36.1)
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele C Category Arrhythmia & Heart Rhythm Arrhythmia, Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Pharmacogenomics, Drug Metabolism

Intergenic variant at 7q36.1 near KCNH2 (hERG potassium channel) that modulates QTc interval duration; C allele shortens QTc by ~1.4–1.8 ms per allele and tags an independent repolarization-modifying signal at the KCNH2 locus

Continue reading
rs3829251 — NADSYN1
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele A Category Vitamin D Metabolism Vitamin D, Bone Health, Immune System, Cholesterol, Cardiovascular

Intronic NADSYN1 variant at the DHCR7/NADSYN1 vitamin D locus; A allele was the top GWAS hit for lower circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D in Ahn et al. 2010 (P = 3.4×10⁻⁹), reducing 7-dehydrocholesterol availability for skin vitamin D3 synthesis

rs4149338 — ABCA1 ABCA1 3'UTR Stroke-Associated Variant
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele G Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cardiovascular, Cholesterol, Cerebrovascular, HDL Cholesterol, Lipid Metabolism, Fat Metabolism

3'UTR variant in the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 gene; the G allele (homozygous GG) is enriched in ischemic stroke patients and associates with lower total cholesterol, suggesting impaired cholesterol efflux capacity may elevate cerebrovascular risk
