rs3820282 — WNT4
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Uterine Fibroids, Reproductive Health, Fertility, Women's Health, Cancer Risk

Intronic variant in WNT4 on chromosome 1p36.12 that introduces a high-affinity estrogen receptor alpha binding site, upregulating WNT4 in endometrial stromal cells; the T allele is associated with increased endometriosis and uterine fibroid risk through enhanced stromal invasibility, while the C allele associates with pelvic organ prolapse risk — an example of antagonistic pleiotropy in reproductive tissue biology

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

Continue reading
rs505802 — SLC22A12
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele C Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Cardiovascular, Diet, Kidney Disease

Upstream regulatory variant in the URAT1 urate reabsorption transporter gene; the C allele increases SLC22A12 expression and renal urate reabsorption, elevating serum uric acid and gout risk, with the strongest effects in East Asian and African populations where the C allele predominates
