In addition, subjects carrying the minor AA genotype at rs12654812 (regulator of G protein signaling 14 (RGS14)) have higher susceptibility to nephrolithiasis (OR = 1.91, p = 0.0017).
We selected seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): rs12654812 and rs11746443 from 5q35.3 (RGS14-SLC34A1-PFN3-F12); rs12669187 and rs1000597 from 7p14.3 (INMT-FAM188B-AQP1); and rs7981733, rs1170155, and rs4142110 from 13q14.1 (DGKH (diacylglycerol kinase)), which were previously reported to be significantly associated with nephrolithiasis. rs12654812, rs12669187 and rs7981733 were significantly associated with nephrolithiasis after Bonferroni's correction (P=3.12 × 10(-3), odds ratio (OR)=1.43; P=6.40 × 10(-3), OR=1.57; and P=5.00 × 10(-3), OR=1.41, respectively).
Here we found three novel loci for nephrolithiasis: RGS14-SLC34A1-PFN3-F12 on 5q35.3 (rs11746443; P = 8.51×10⁻¹², odds ratio (OR) = 1.19), INMT-FAM188B-AQP1 on 7p14.3 (rs1000597; P = 2.16×10⁻¹⁴, OR = 1.22), and DGKH on 13q14.1 (rs4142110; P = 4.62×10⁻⁹, OR = 1.14).
