Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The adiponectin gene has been identified as a susceptibility locus for metabolic syndrome, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. AIM: To examine the influence of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of this gene (+276G>T and +45T>G) on circulating adiponectin concentrations, and to evaluate their relationship with adiposity and cardiometabolic risk factors in prepubertal children with and without...
