rs9951307is a SNP in the aquaporin-4 (AQP4) gene; the corresponding protein is the main water channel in the brain and is implicated in the development of brain edema after an ischemic stroke.

A study of 41 patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion with and without severe brain edema found that rs9951307 was associated with severe brain edema (dominant model, p=0.01; OR, 0.10, CI: 0.02 to 0.49 for the protective (G) allele).[PMID 18309154]
