SMIM29 rs9689096: what the research says
This variant is identified as a pleiotropic SNP shared between endometriosis and ADHD, suggesting a genetic link between reproductive and psychiatric conditions.
What each genotype means
Baseline genetic profile
This genotype represents the baseline state for this variant. Research indicates that this specific genetic location is shared between endometriosis and ADHD, suggesting a potential biological link between reproductive and neurodevelopmental health. This association is based on population-level statistical data and does not predict individual health outcomes.
This is a common genotype found across diverse global populations.
Associated with shared risk
Carrying one copy of the G allele at this location has been identified in genome-wide association studies as a shared genetic marker linked to both endometriosis and ADHD. This suggests a pleiotropic effect where the same genetic variation may influence susceptibility to both reproductive and psychiatric conditions. These findings are based on statistical correlations and should not be used for diagnostic purposes.
This heterozygous genotype is commonly observed in many populations worldwide.
Increased shared risk marker
Carrying two copies of the G allele is associated with the shared genetic signal identified between endometriosis and ADHD. This variant is located within the SMIM29 gene, which is involved in cellular membrane processes. While this marker is statistically linked to these conditions, it is only one of many factors that contribute to overall health, and it does not determine the development of any specific disease.
This genotype is common and found at varying frequencies across different ancestral groups.
