rs5888 — SCARB1
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele A Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Fat Metabolism, Heart Disease, Diet

Synonymous variant that reduces SR-BI receptor expression and impairs HDL cholesterol uptake by the liver, lowering HDL-C levels and modestly increasing cardiovascular risk

rs7517847 — IL23R
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Immune & Gut, Autoimmune, IBD, Psoriasis, Arthritis, Inflammation

Intronic IL23R variant in which the T allele increases susceptibility to Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and ankylosing spondylitis, while the G allele is protective — independent of the rs2201841 risk signal at the same locus

Continue reading
rs932764 — PLCE1
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele G Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Preeclampsia, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Blood Pressure, Cardiovascular

Intronic variant in PLCE1 (phospholipase C epsilon 1) associated with elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure; the G allele has been linked in large GWAS to modestly higher blood pressure and, through shared genetic architecture, to increased susceptibility to preeclampsia and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy

Continue reading
rs1801275 — IL4R Q576R
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Immune & Gut, Immune System, Asthma, Inflammation, Skin Health

Gain-of-function missense variant in the IL-4 receptor alpha chain that amplifies Th2 immune signaling, increasing susceptibility to asthma, atopic dermatitis, and allergic disease

Continue reading
rs1801394 — MTRR A66G
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele G Category Methylation & Detox Methylation, B Vitamins, Homocysteine

B12 recycling enzyme — regenerates active B12 for the methylation cycle

Continue reading
rs1906252 — POU3F2
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Neurology & Cognition Brain Health, Neurological Risk, Cognition, Neuroplasticity, Memory

Regulatory variant at chromosome 6q16.1 near POU3F2 (BRN2), a master transcription factor for cortical neuron development; the A allele is associated with higher general cognitive ability and educational attainment in GWAS studies totalling over 1 million individuals
