rs498422 — LOC101929163 LOC101929163 Variant
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Male Fertility, Fertility, HLA, Sperm Quality, Ancestry-Specific, Autoimmune

Intronic variant in TSBP1-AS1 (LOC101929163), a non-coding antisense RNA in the HLA region between TSBP1 and BTNL2 on chromosome 6p21.32; the G allele is associated with increased risk of non-obstructive azoospermia in Han Chinese men, with an odds ratio of approximately 1.42 in a large multi-stage GWAS

rs5051 — AGT G-6A
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Cardiovascular, Hypertension, Blood Pressure, Heart Disease, Salt Sensitivity, Atherosclerosis

Promoter variant that increases angiotensinogen gene transcription, raising plasma AGT levels and contributing to hypertension risk

rs582757 — TNFAIP3 TNFAIP3 A20 regulatory variant
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele C Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Autoimmune, Psoriasis, Inflammation, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Immune & Autoimmune, Anti-TNF Biologics

Intronic regulatory variant in TNFAIP3 — the primary NF-kB brake gene — with the C allele independently increasing psoriasis susceptibility (OR 1.23) and showing pleiotropic associations across multiple autoimmune conditions

rs60910145 — APOL1 G1 I384M
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele G Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Kidney Disease, Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Infectious Disease, Ancestry

Second component of the APOL1 G1 kidney disease risk haplotype — a missense variant that, together with rs73885319 (S342G), confers 7- to 29-fold increased risk for non-diabetic CKD under a recessive inheritance model in African-ancestry populations

rs6165 — FSHR Ala307Thr (T307A)
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category Fertility & Ovarian Function Fertility, Reproductive Health, IVF, Gonadotropins, Ovarian Reserve, Hormones

Missense variant in the extracellular domain of the FSH receptor that removes an O-linked glycosylation site, altering FSH binding affinity; nearly completely co-inherited with rs6166 (Asn680Ser) and associated with poor ovarian response in IVF and PCOS susceptibility

rs61750595 — VWF R1659X
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele A Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Carrier Status, Thrombophilia, Genetic Counseling

Nonsense mutation creating a premature stop codon in von Willebrand factor; heterozygotes have VWD type 1 (partial VWF deficiency) and homozygotes have VWD type 3, the most severe bleeding disorder caused by near-complete absence of VWF

rs6548238 — TMEM18
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category Appetite & Obesity Obesity, Appetite, Fat Metabolism, Diabetes, Insulin Resistance

Second strongest obesity GWAS locus after FTO

rs705379 — PON1 PON1 promoter -108C>T
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele A Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Cardiovascular, HDL Cholesterol, Oxidative Stress, Antioxidants, Atherosclerosis, Liver Health

Promoter polymorphism that controls PON1 gene expression — the T allele (A on the plus strand) reduces transcription factor binding, halving arylesterase activity and lowering HDL-mediated antioxidant protection against LDL oxidation.
