Genetic variation in the gene encoding adiponectin is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in the japanese population

TL;DR: Evidence of an association between frequent single nucleotide polymorphisms at positions 45 and 276 in the adiponectin gene and type 2 diabetes is presented, and the observation that adiponECTin improves insulin sensitivity in animal models is concluded.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-nucleotide polymorphism haplotypes in the both proximal promoter and exon 3 of the APM1 gene modulate adipocyte-secreted adiponectin hormone levels and contribute to the genetic risk for type 2 diabetes in French Caucasians

TL;DR: The results suggest that an at-risk haplotype of common variants located in the promoter and rare mutations in exon 3 contribute to the variation of the adipocyte-secreted adiponectin hormone level, and may be part of the genetic determinants for T2D in the French Caucasian population.
