Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We explored potential associations of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ; +45T>G, rs2241766 and +276G>T, rs1501299) with circulating total and high-molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin, insulin resistance (IR), and markers of obesity in a healthy Greek female population. DESIGN AND METHODS: The two SNPs were genotyped in 349 women without diabetes (mean age:...
