The Association Between Adiponectin Gene Polymorphism (rs1501299) and Metabolic Syndrome by Yin L, Tang Y, Yuan Y

“…The APN levels in the GT (14.3 ± 5.3 mg/L) and TT (13.4 ± 5.4 mg/L) genotypes of the study subjects were lower than those of the GG genotype (15.5 ± 4.8 mg/L, p < 0.05).Conclusion: The occurrence of Mets may be associated with genetic variants at the rs1501299 locus, especially for individuals with G to T variants that reduce APN levels and lead to a higher risk of developing Mets.Keywords: adiponectin, gene polymorphism, metabolic syndrome…”
