PSEN1 encodes a presenilin protein that participates in gamma-secretase, a protein-processing complex. Some pathogenic variants can cause familial Alzheimer’s disease; a listed common marker is not equivalent to that diagnosis.

SERPINE1 makes PAI-1, a protein involved in breaking down blood clots. You may also see PAI4G used for this pathway.

TNF encodes tumor necrosis factor, an immune-signaling protein involved in inflammation, host defense and regulation of cell survival. Its name should not be read as proof that a TNF result indicates cancer.

Encodes the reduced folate carrier, a protein involved in transporting folates into cells.

CXCL8 is the gene for IL-8, a chemokine involved in recruiting and activating neutrophils. IL-8 is the protein nickname; CXCL8 is the gene name a DNA report may use.

IL18RAP encodes an accessory protein in the IL-18 receptor complex. The receptor needs coordinated components to translate an extracellular signal into a cellular response.

RAD50 encodes a DNA-repair protein. The surrounding genomic region also contains regulatory elements relevant to the nearby IL4, IL5 and IL13 cluster, so a locus association can concern more than the coding function of one gene.

TNFSF10 encodes TRAIL, a signaling protein involved in regulated cell death through particular receptors. It is a different member of the TNF-related signaling family from TNF itself.
