rs137853097 — HSD17B4 N457Y
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele T Category Metabolic Enzymes & Rare Disorders Carrier Status, Fat Metabolism, Neurological Risk, Reproductive Health, Genetic Counseling, Hearing Loss

Missense variant in the enoyl-CoA hydratase domain of D-bifunctional protein; biallelic inheritance causes peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation failure with severe neonatal neurological disease; heterozygous carriers are clinically unaffected but carry reproductive risk

rs140597 — FBN1 D1113G
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele C Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Connective Tissue, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status, Extracellular Matrix

Pathogenic missense variant in fibrillin-1 replacing the calcium-coordinating aspartate at position 1113 with glycine in an EGF-like calcium-binding domain, disrupting microfibril assembly and predisposing heterozygous carriers to familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (FTAAD) and Marfan syndrome

rs140926439 — FN1
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele T Category Longevity & Aging Alzheimer's, Neurological Risk, Extracellular Matrix, Neurodegeneration, Longevity, Brain Health

Rare missense variant in fibronectin 1 that reduces Alzheimer's disease risk in APOE ε4 carriers by limiting pathological fibronectin accumulation at the blood-brain barrier

rs1537377 — CDKN2BAS CDKN2B-AS1 rs1537377
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele C Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Fertility, Women's Health, Cancer Risk, Tumor Suppressor, Inflammation

Regulatory variant in the ANRIL long non-coding RNA at the 9p21.3 locus; the C allele independently increases endometriosis susceptibility, with stronger effects in moderate-to-severe disease stages

Continue reading
rs16944 — IL1B -511C>T
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele A Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Inflammation, Cardiovascular, Sepsis, Atherosclerosis, Immune Response

Promoter variant affecting IL-1 beta production, influencing inflammatory response and cardiovascular disease risk

rs16969968 — CHRNA5 Asp398Asn
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele A Category Mood & Behavior Mental Health, Addiction, Smoking, Lung Cancer, Neurotransmitters

Nicotinic receptor variant strongly associated with heavy smoking, nicotine dependence, and increased lung cancer risk

Continue reading
rs174541 — FADS1 FADS1 C>G (delta-5 desaturase depth)
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele C Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Omega-3, Fat Metabolism, Triglycerides, Cardiovascular, Diet

Intronic regulatory variant in FADS1 that reduces delta-5 desaturase expression and activity, impairing conversion of dietary omega-6 and omega-3 precursors to arachidonic acid and EPA respectively; independently associated with plasma triglyceride levels and omega-3/omega-6 fatty acid ratios.

Continue reading
rs1746048 — CXCL12
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele C Category Coronary Artery Disease & Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular, Atherosclerosis, Heart Disease, Inflammation, Angiogenesis

Regulatory variant 80 kb downstream of CXCL12 on chromosome 10q11; the T allele reduces circulating CXCL12 chemokine levels and confers protection against coronary artery disease

Continue reading
rs1800544 — ADRA2A ADRA2A Promoter -1291C>G
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele C Category Appetite & Obesity Appetite, Obesity, Insulin, Metabolic, Antidepressants, Drug Response

Promoter variant that alters alpha-2A adrenergic receptor expression, affecting adrenergic suppression of insulin secretion and lipolysis; C allele carriers show greater susceptibility to antipsychotic- and antidepressant-induced weight gain
