Analyzed variants (SNPs)

rs1800629 TNF -308G-A Population frequency: 15.0% Chr. 6 : 31,543,031
Genotype Impact What it means
GG (Normal) Normal Normal TNF-alpha levels
GA (Carrier) Moderate Increased TNF-alpha cytokine production. Anti-inflammatory diet (omega-3, polyphenols) and stress management help modulate inflammatory tone.
AA (Variant) High impact AA genotype, increased TNF-alpha production and chronic low-grade inflammation tendency. Omega-3 fatty acids and curcumin help modulate the inflammatory response.
