Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of adiponectin (APN) rs2241766 and rs1501299 polymorphisms on adiponectin levels and their association with metabolic syndrome (MetS). METHODS: Analyzed two polymorphisms (rs2241766 and rs1501299) of the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) in 210 MetS patients and 102 control patients using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method and DNA sequencing technology. RESULTS: The genotypes of the rs2241766 T/G and rs1501299 G/T polymorphism were significantly associated with serum APN levels in MetS patients. The ADIPOQ polymorphisms were associated with a risk of MetS when compared with that in healthy controls. TG and GG genotypes of rs2241766 were associated with a significantly elevated risk of MetS as compared with the TT genotype (OR = 1.32 and OR = 2.53). Subjects with the G allele appeared to have higher susceptibility to MetS than those with the T allele (OR = 2.21). In common with the findings for rs2241766, the rs1501299 GT and TT genotypes were associated with a significantly increased risk of MetS as compared with the GG genotype (OR = 1.51 and OR = 2.24). The susceptibility to MetS appeared to be higher in subjects with the T allele than in those with the G allele (OR = 1.88). CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of MetS may be associated with genetic variations at the rs2241766 and rs1501299 loci, especially in individuals with T to G mutations (rs2241766) and G to T mutations (rs1501299). These mutations may lead to decreased APN levels and a higher risk of developing MetS.
