Adiponectin gene polymorphisms (T45G and G276T), adiponectin levels and risk for metabolic diseases in an Arab population

In this study we examined the association of adiponectin gene variants with circulating adiponectin, and known metabolic diseases in 298 healthy controls and 297 Saudi subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were measured by standard procedures. Genotyping of T45G and G276T single nucleotide polymorphisms of adiponectin gene was carried out by PCR-RFLP analysis. No significant differences in the genotype distribution of T45G and G276T polymorphism were found between control and diabetic subjects. Neither SNP conferred an association with T2DM, obesity, hypertension or dyslipidemia. Despite a marked decrease in patients as opposed to controls, adiponectin levels were not different according to genotypes of T45G and G276T polymorphisms in control and patients. Thus, neither adiponectin SNPs independently conferred increased T2DM risk nor in other metabolic conditions considered such as obesity, hypertension or dyslipidemia. These findings support the existence of population based differences in the association of adiponectin gene variants with metabolic phenotypes and emphasize the importance of studying multiple polymorphisms, sufficient enough to identify the adiponectin gene as a genetic marker for several non-chronic communicable diseases.     

The association between adiponectin (+45T/G) and adiponectin receptor-2 (+795G/A) single nucleotide polymorphisms with cirrhosis in Iranian population

Adiponectin which possesses anti-inflammatory and insulin-sensitizing properties is elevated in blood circulation of liver cirrhosis patients. The genetic variations in the adiponectin gene can affect the circulating adiponectin level and stimulation of adiponectin receptor that may affect the activity of adiponectin. We investigated the effect of adiponectin single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) 45 T/G and adiponectin receptor-2 gene SNP 795G/A in cirrhotic Iranian population. A total of 97 cirrhotic patients and 128 healthy controls from Iranian population were genotyped for the adiponectin and adiponectin receptor 2 gene (+45T>G and 795G/A) by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. G frequency was 21.1% versus 12.89% (P = 0.001) for SNP45, and G frequency was 75.8% versus 76.2% (P = 0.526) for SNP795G/A in the patients and control group, respectively. Based on our findings, the expression of the G allele at SNP45 is higher in the patient group compared with healthy subjects, suggesting that it may affect liver injury through changes in the plasma adiponectin level.     

Polymorphism of adiponectin (45T/G) and adiponectin receptor-2 (795G/A) in an Iranian population: relation with insulin resistance and response to treatment with pioglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Adiponectin, an adipose-derived plasma protein, is reduced in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Thiazolidinediones can increase adiponectin levels and improve insulin sensitivity. This study investigated the associations between type 2 diabetes and two single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the adiponectin (45T/G) and adiponectin receptor-2 gene (795G/A), and investigated whether these genetic variants affect the response to pioglitazone in Iranian patients with type 2 diabetes. We genotyped 128 non-diabetic participants and 101 patients with type 2 diabetes for 45T/G and 795G/A with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assays. Patients were treated with pioglitazone for 12 weeks, after which we compared laboratory parameters in these two groups. Fasting blood sugar differed significantly in individuals with different 795G/A genotypes after pioglitazone treatment (P = 0.009). The mean decrease in insulin/glucose ratio after treatment also differed significantly in individuals with different 45T/G genotypes (P = 0.035). The T allele frequency for 45T/G was 87.11% in controls versus 81.68% in patients (P = 0.071). The TG and GG genotypes were more frequent in patients (P = 0.032). The G allele frequency for 795G/A was 76.17% in controls versus 80.20% in patients (P = 0.179). 795G/A variants were not significantly different between patient and control group. The adiponectin gene 45T/G mutation may be an important determinant of type 2 diabetes in the Iranian population. However, adiponectin 45T/G and adiponectin receptor-2 795G/A polymorphisms were not significantly associated with the response to pioglitazone in our sample.     

Adiponectin gene variants and the risk of coronary artery disease in patients with type 2 diabetes

Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are more susceptible to develop cardiovascular complications than non-diabetic subjects. Several studies have indicated a role of adiponectin gene in the increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in T2D patients. The data however is limited and have been inconsistent. In this study we examined the association of SNP45T>G and SNP276G>T of adiponectin gene with CAD risk in T2D patients in a Saudi population. A total of 418 type 2 diabetic patients were randomly recruited in this study from the RIYADH COHORT. Of the total diabetes patients, 123 were also diagnosed to have CAD, while the rest were control subjects. Anthropometric, clinical and biochemical parameters were measured by standard procedures. Genotyping of polymorphisms was carried out by PCR–RFLP analysis. Genotype distribution of SNP45T>G was significantly (P = 0.005) different between control and CAD subjects, while the distribution of SNP276G>T genotypes was comparable between the subjects. The SNP45T>G was significantly associated with risk of CAD [OR (95% CI), 4.7 (1.6–13.5), P < 0.003] but not SNP276G>T [OR (95% CI), 1.02 (0.53–1.9), P > 0.05]. The association of SNP45T>G with CAD risk remained significant even after adjusting for potential confounding factors [OR (95% CI), 7.2 (1.1–45.9), P < 0.05]. The SNP45T>G of adiponectin gene is an independent risk factor for CAD in T2D patients in a Saudi population. These findings support a role for adiponectin gene in the increased CAD risk in diabetes patients and are consistent with genetic heterogeneity in the association between adiponectin gene and coronary artery disease.     

Association of the + 45T > G adiponectin gene polymorphism with insulin resistance in non-diabetic Saudi women

Background

The human adiponectin gene variations are associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. However, these associations have not been fully examined in a non-diabetic population in Saudi Arabia. We aimed to investigate the association of 45T > G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the adiponectin gene with total adiponectin levels, insulin resistance (IR), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and other markers of obesity in non-diabetic Saudi females.

Methods

One hundred non diabetic Saudi females were enrolled in this study. They were further divided according to their body mass index (BMI) into two groups. Group I, 46 non diabetic subjects with normal body weight and group II, 54 overweight and obese females. Adiponectin 45T/G polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP). Serum adiponectin was measured by ELISA.

Results

Obese women exhibited a higher distribution of TG/GG genotype compared with non-obese women. SNP + 45T > G genotypes were associated with higher FBG, insulin levels and HOMA–IR with lower total adiponectin levels in obese Saudi women. Otherwise the all estimated variables revealed non-significant differences among the non-obese genotypes. The observed differences in insulin resistance markers were very significant among women with a higher body weight but not among normal body weight women, thus suggesting that SNP + 45T > G effects on insulin sensitivity may depend upon body weight and body fat status.

Conclusion

SNP + 45T > G of adiponectin gene has a significant role in the development of insulin resistance in Saudi women possibly through an interaction with increase body weight and hypoadiponectinemia.     

Distribution and genotype frequency of adiponectin (+45 T/G) and adiponectin receptor2 (+795 G/A) single nucleotide polymorphisms in Iranian population

The Adiponectin (ADIPOQ) gene encodes adipose tissue-secreted hormone, Adiponectin, which is secreted to the bloodstream by adipocytes. Adiponectin is a hormone with anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties and plays a significant role in insulin sensitivity and obesity. The genetic variations in ADIPOQ gene change the circulating adiponectin level and may cause insulin resistance. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the frequency of a common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of ADIPOQ gene (+45T/G) and adiponectin receptor-2 (ADIPOR2) gene (+795G/A) in Iranian population and to correlate these data with other populations. A hundred healthy volunteers were enrolled to identify the genotype of ADIPOQ gene (+45T/G) and ADIPOR2 gene (+795G/A). This was performed by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Genotype frequencies for ADIPOQ (+45T/G) were 0.789 for TT, 0.164 for TG, and 0.0468 for GG. Allelic frequencies were 0.87 and 0.13 for T and G, respectively. Genotype frequencies for ADIPOR2 (+795G/A) were 0.09 for AA, 0.3 for AG, and 0.61 for GG; allelic frequencies were 0.24 for A and 0.76 for G. Comparisons between ADIPOQ and ADIPOR2 polymorphisms in Iranian population with those in other populations showed significant differences.     

Adiponectin and resistin gene polymorphisms in patients with anorexia nervosa and obesity and its influence on metabolic phenotype

Genes for adiponectin and resistin are candidate genes of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of our study was to determine the frequency of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) 45T>G and 276G>T of the adiponectin gene and 62G>A and -180C>G of the resistin gene in patients with obesity (OB), anorexia nervosa (AN) and in control healthy normal-weight women (NW) and to study the influence of particular genotypes on serum concentrations of these hormones and on insulin sensitivity. Serum adiponectin, resistin, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), insulin, cholesterol, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and blood glucose levels were measured in 77 patients with OB, 28 with AN and 38 NW. DNA analysis was carried out by polymerase chain reaction with restriction analysis of PCR product. The presence of SNP ADP+276 G>T allele was accompanied by higher cholesterol levels in AN patients, higher adiponectin concentrations in OB patients and lower HbA1c levels in NW. SNP of the resistin gene 62G>A was associated with lower HbA1c in NW and higher cholesterol concentrations in OB group. The carriers of the minor G allele in the position -180 of the resistin gene within AN group had significantly higher BMI relative to non-carriers. We conclude that polymorphisms in adiponectin and resistin genes can contribute to metabolic phenotype of patients with obesity and anorexia nervosa.     

Association between the −11377 C/G and −11391 G/A polymorphisms of adiponectin gene and adiponectin levels with susceptibility to type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus in population from the west of Iran,correlation with lipid profile

Adipose tissue, an endocrine organ, secretes bioactive factors including adiponectin. Adiponectin is a protein hormone that enhances insulin sensitivity through increased fatty acid oxidation and inhibition of hepatic glucose production. We assessed the association of the adiponectin promoter region polymorphisms −11391 G/A and −11377 C/G with susceptibility to type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM) diabetes mellitus in the population of west Iran. Also, we investigated the effect of adiponectin level and lipid profile on T1DM and T2DM development. In this case-control study, we recruited 189 patients with diabetes (100 T2DM and 89 T1DM) and 161 sex and age-matched unrelated healthy controls. Adiponectin mutations were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), and the protein level was measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Other biochemical parameters were determined by routine laboratory methods. The G allele of adiponectin gene at −11377 position (C/G) significantly increased the risk of T1DM. With respect to genotype models, codominant (2.97 times), dominant (3.6-fold), and over-codominant (2.9-fold) patients with T1DM who carried −11377 C > G single-nucleotide polymorphisms were significantly susceptible to the development of the disease. A significantly higher level of adiponectin in T1DM was oberved compared with the control group. In contrast, patients with T2DM had lower adiponectin levels compared with healthy controls. The genotype distributions of −11391 G/A polymorphisms were the same for patients with diabetes and control groups. The presence of G allele at −11377 C/G adiponectin gene significantly increased serum adiponectin level and may be a risk factor for T1DM susceptibility among the western Iranian population.     

Lack of evidence for intermolecular epistatic interactions between adiponectin and resistin gene polymorphisms in Malaysian male subjects

Epistasis (gene-gene interaction) is a ubiquitous component of the genetic architecture of complex traits such as susceptibility to common human diseases. Given the strong negative correlation between circulating adiponectin and resistin levels, the potential intermolecular epistatic interactions between ADIPOQ (SNP+45T > G, SNP+276G > T, SNP+639T > C and SNP+1212A > G) and RETN (SNP-420C > G and SNP+299G > A) gene polymorphisms in the genetic risk underlying type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and metabolic syndrome (MS) were assessed. The potential mutual influence of the ADIPOQ and RETN genes on their adipokine levels was also examined. The rare homozygous genotype (risk alleles) of SNP-420C > G at the RETN locus tended to be co-inherited together with the common homozygous genotypes (protective alleles) of SNP+639T > C and SNP+1212A > G at the ADIPOQ locus. Despite the close structural relationship between the ADIPOQ and RETN genes, there was no evidence of an intermolecular epistatic interaction between these genes. There was also no reciprocal effect of the ADIPOQ and RETN genes on their adipokine levels, i.e., ADIPOQ did not affect resistin levels nor did RETN affect adiponectin levels. The possible influence of the ADIPOQ gene on RETN expression warrants further investigation.
