Associations between two common single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs2241766 and rs1501299) of ADIPOQ gene and coronary artery disease in type 2 diabetic patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Interactions between DASH-style diet and ADIPOQ and ARL15 genes polymorphisms on blood pressure and central obesity in Iranian adults

This study aimed to investigate the interactions between the Dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) and the rs1501299 and rs6450176 SNPs in terms of cardiometabolic risk factors. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 387 adults (20-70 years old) residing in Yazd, Iran. The participants were selected from participants in the recruitment phase of the Yazd Health Study (YaHS) which is a population-based cohort of 9,962 adults. The genotypes of rs1501299 and rs6450176 SNPs were determined using the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method. Unlike for the G allele carriers of rs1501299, high adherence to the DASH dietary pattern was related to the lower diastolic blood pressure (DBP; P-interaction = 0.014) and systolic blood pressure (SBP; P-interaction = 0.051) in the participants with TT genotype. Moreover, in individuals with the AA genotype of rs6450176 SNP, adherence to this diet was associated with lower SBP (P-interaction = 0.012), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR; P-interaction = 0.026) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR; P-interaction = 0.040), while in G allele carriers, the mean of these items was greater in individuals with high adherence to the DASH diet. The results suggest that following the DASH diet may be related to lower blood pressure and central obesity indices only in individuals with TT genotype of rs1501299 and AA genotype of rs6450176, respectively, whereas it can be associated with higher WHR and WHtR in G allele carriers of rs6450176.

The Association Between Adiponectin Gene Polymorphism (rs1501299) and Metabolic Syndrome

Objective

To investigate the allelic genotypes of the adiponectin (APN) gene polymorphisms (rs1501299) and its association with APN level among Mets patients.

Methods

A total of 410 patients with Mets and 203 healthy subjects were included in the study. The serum APN levels of the subjects were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The polymorphisms of the G/T gene at the rs1501299 locus of the APN gene were detected using restriction fragment length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction technology.

Results

The serum APN levels were significantly lower in Mets patients than in the control group (15.0 ± 4.9 mg/L vs 27.2 ± 6.5 mg/L, p < 0.05). The distribution of the three genotypes at the rs1501299 locus was statistically different between the Mets patients and the control group (GG, GT, and TT, p < 0.05), and the frequencies of the T alleles were higher in the Mets patients than in control group (GT and TT, p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the study subjects with the T allele had a higher risk of Mets than those with the G allele (OR = 1.85, p < 0.05). The risk of Mets was higher in GT and TT genotypes compared to in GG genotypes (OR = 1.43; OR = 2.14 vs OR = 1.00 ref). Similarly, it increased after combining GT and GG genotypes (OR = 1.73, p < 0.05). The APN levels in the GT (14.3 ± 5.3 mg/L) and TT (13.4 ± 5.4 mg/L) genotypes of the study subjects were lower than those of the GG genotype (15.5 ± 4.8 mg/L, p < 0.05).

Conclusion

The occurrence of Mets may be associated with genetic variants at the rs1501299 locus, especially for individuals with G to T variants that reduce APN levels and lead to a higher risk of developing Mets.

Association of rs2241766 and rs1501299 polymorphisms in the adiponectin gene with metabolic syndrome

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.

The Association between ADIPOQ Gene Polymorphisms and Diabetic Retinopathy Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background and Objectives: Recent studies have focused on the association between the risk of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and the rs1501299 and rs2241766 polymorphisms of the ADIPOQ gene; however, their results remain inconclusive. Thus, a systematic review and meta-analysis were carried out to clarify the role of these polymorphisms in the development of DR. Materials and Methods: A systematic search of electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library) was conducted until 25 June 2024, and a reference list of relevant articles was collected, which explored the association between the rs1501299 and rs2241766 polymorphisms of the ADIPOQ gene and the risk of DR. The pooled odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated via random-effects model, and the meta-analysis was implemented by using Review Manager 5.4. Results: In total, 6 out of 182 studies, with 1888 cases (DR) and 2285 controls (without DR), were included in the meta-analysis. A statistically significant association between the rs1501299 polymorphism and the DR risk was recorded in G vs. T in the overall analysis (OR = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.72-0.99, p = <0.05, I2 = 23%, n = 5 studies). Additionally, the summary results in the subgroup analysis according to the control type were as follows: the DR versus diabetes mellitus (DM) control type revealed a statistically significant association in G vs. T: OR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.67-0.97, p = <0.05, I2 = 27%, n = 4 studies; GG vs. GT: OR = 0.72, 95% CI = 0.53-0.98, p = <0.05, I2 = 49%, n = 4 studies; GG vs. (GT + TT): OR = 0.73, 95% CI = 0.55-0.96, p = <0.05, I2 = 44%, n = 4 studies. No significant association was observed between the rs2241766 polymorphism and the DR risk. Conclusions: The current meta-analysis supports the association between the rs1501299 polymorphism of the ADIPOQ gene and the DR risk in patients with DM.

Association of adiponectin and its receptor gene polymorphisms with the risk of coronary heart disease in northern Guangxi

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the association of circulating adiponectin (APN) level and single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs1501299 and rs266729) of the APN gene in the coronary heart disease (CHD) population of Northern Guangxi Province.

METHODS

Two hundred and sixty-three CHD patients and 235 healthy controls from our hospital from August 2018 to October 2020 were included in this study. ELISA was used to determine the serum APN concentration. PCR-RFLP and direct DNA sequencing were used to analyze the genotypes of APN gene rs1501299 G/T and rs266729 C/G single-nucleotide loci, their distribution differences between the two groups were compared and their correlation with APN concentration was analyzed.

RESULTS

The serum APN concentration in the CHD group was significantly lower than the control group (14.40(1.42-52.26) μg/mL vs. 29.40 (3.18-90.31) μg/mL, P < 0.001). There were statistically significant differences in the rs266729 genotype of APN single nucleotide locus between the two groups (P < 0.001). The dominant model and recessive model of rs266729 genotype showed that mutant homozygous GG genotype carriers significantly increased the risk of CHD in comparison with C allele carriers (CG + CC) (OR = 2.156, 95 %CI: 1.004-4.631, P = 0.049), and this effect was still significant after adjusting gender and age (OR = 2.695, 95 %CI 1.110-6.540, P = 0.028). In both the dominant and recessive models for rs1501299, ORs before and after adjustment for age and sex revealed no significant association with CHD, with ORs of 0.765 (95 % CI: 0.537-1.091, P = 0.139) and 0.718 (95 % CI: 0.466-1.106, P = 0.133) in the Dominant model, and ORs of 0.960 (95 % CI: 0.442-2.087, P = 0.918) and 0.613 (95 % CI: 0.239-1.570, P = 0.308) in the Recessive model, respectively. No statistically significant differences in APN concentrations across genotypes in both groups (P > 0.05), with chi-square values of 1.633 (control group) and 0.823 (CHD group) for rs1501299, and 1.354 (control group) and 0.618 (CHD group) for rs266729.

CONCLUSIONS

APN gene of rs266729 C/G single-nucleotide loci gene mutation can significantly increase the risk of CHD. There was no significant correlation between rs1501299 G/T single-nucleotide loci and CHD in Northern Guangxi populations.

Study Protocol for the Interactions between Dietary Patterns and ARL15 and ADIPOQ Genes Polymorphisms on Cardiometabolic Risk Factors

Background

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are recognized as one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Studies have shown the impact of genetic predisposition and dietary factors on developing these diseases. Dietary patterns and genetic factors such as polymorphisms related to the level of adiponectin may also interact with each other and produce variances in the effects of these factors on different individuals. The purpose of this study is to investigate the interactions between food intake patterns and polymorphisms on ADIPOQ and ARL15 genes in relation to cardiometabolic risk factors.

Methods

This cross-sectional study is conducted on 380 adults (20 to 70 years old) living in Yazd, Iran. Individuals were selected from the participants in Yazd Health Study (YaHS) and its sub-study called Taghziyeh Mardom-e Yazd (TAMYZ) after reviewing the inclusion and exclusion criteria. YaHS is a population-based cohort study which has been conducted on 9962 adults living in Yazd since 2014. In the present study, rotated principle component analysis (PCA) with Varimax rotation is used to identify the major dietary patterns. The polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method is used in order to identify rs1501299 and rs6450176 variants (on ADIPOQ and ARL15 genes, respectively). General linear models (GLM) as well as regression models are used to investigate the interactions between the studied genotypes and the extracted dietary patterns.

Conclusions

The results of this study can help to personalize dietary recommendations for the prevention of CVDs according to the genetic predisposition of individuals.

Polymorphism analysis of ADIPOQ gene in Greek patients with diabetic retinopathy

BACKGROUND

Several genetic polymorphisms have been identified as risk factors for diabetic retinopathy (DR) onset. The purpose of our study was to determine whether ADIPOQ rs1501299 and rs2241766 gene polymorphisms are associated with DR in a cohort of Greek diabetic patients.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

218 patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were included in the study; 109 suffered from DR and 109 not. All the participants underwent a complete ophthalmological examination, while clinical and demographic data were assessed. Furthermore, they were genotyped for G276T (rs1501299) and T45G (rs2241766) single nucleotide polymorphisms of ADIPOQ gene.

RESULTS

Between the studied groups, no significant differences were detected regarding the demographic and clinical data (p > .05 for all), except for hemoglobin A1c levels and frequency of insulin treatment (higher in DR patients). We detected that the frequency of rs1501299 GT genotype was significantly elevated in DR patients (53% vs. 34%, p = .004) and was associated with a higher risk of developing retinopathy (OR 2.31, 95% CI 1.30-4.11). Furthermore, we demonstrated that the rs1501299 GT genotype was significantly and independently associated with increased odds for DR development in diabetic subjects (OR 2.68, 95% CI 1.38-5.21, p = .004), regardless of the impact of other known risk factors.

CONCLUSIONS

We documented that rs1501299 GT genotype could be recognized as an independent risk factor of retinopathy in T2DM Greek patients, while no role for rs2241766 polymorphism was identified. Further research in different ethnic groups will clarify the exact association of these polymorphisms with the risk of DR development.

Polymorphism in Adiponectin and Adiponectin Receptor Genes in Diabetes Mellitus Pathogenesis

The role played by hereditary factors in the development of diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) has not yet been fully established. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to investigate the prevalence of adiponectin and polymorphism in its gene receptors in connection with the primary symptoms of DM2 pathogenesis. Genomic DNA was isolated from the whole blood of 94 patients with an established diagnosis of DM2 using the phenol–chloroform method. Gene polymorphisms were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The most common polymorphic variants in patients with DM2 were the genotypes AA (rs11061971) and GG (rs16928751) on the ADIPOR2 gene. A strong correlation was found between the rs16928751 polymorphism on the ADIPOR2 gene and increased body mass index (BMI). TG (rs2275737) ADIPOR1 gene genotype carriers were found to have the highest levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1), whereas TT (rs2275738) caused stable hyperglycemia. In addition, the rs16928751 ADIPOR2 gene polymorphism showed an association with the development of key mechanisms of DM2 in the Russian population, although a number of genomic searches failed to show any association of this gene with DM2. Unique gene variants associated with the risk of developing DM2 in the Crimean population were established.

Adiponectin gene polymorphisms and risk of type 2 diabetes: an updated evidence for meta-analysis

BACKGROUND

Growing body of evidence suggest the association between SNP - 11377 C > G and SNP + 276 G > T polymorphisms of adiponectin gene with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, these findings have not been conclusive and consistent. The present study quantitatively evaluates the data on the association between DIPOQ - 11377C/G, and + 276G/T polymorphisms and risk of T2D through a meta-analysis.

METHODS

A systematic search was performed in the PubMed, Web of science, Scopus and Cochrane library databases to extract published studies according to the inclusion criteria. Among the 741 studies, 391 of them were screened as full text and 31 studies were finally included in the meta-analysis. Analysis of data was performed using random-effects model. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to analyze the strength of association. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were performed to identify the potential source of heterogeneity.

RESULTS

The pooled analysis showed that there was no statistically significant association between genotypes of CC (OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.53-1.09, P = 0.14), CG (OR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.72-1.20, P = 0.58) and GG (OR = 1, 95% CI: 0.80-1.26, P = 0.94) ADIPO - 11377 polymorphism with increased risk of T2D. In addition, the results revealed a trend toward an increased risk of T2D for the SNP + 276 TT genotype (OR = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.77-0.98, P = 0.026) as compared with the GT and GG genotypes. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity indicated significant association between the TT genotype of the SNP + 276 and increased risk of T2D among Europeans. Met-regression demonstrated significant association between the GT genotype of + 276 polymorphism with risk of T2D in male individuals (slope: 0.0006; 95% CI: 0.0002-0.0009; P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

Collectively, our findings demonstrated a positive association between ADIPOQ + 276 G > T polymorphism with increased risk of T2D in male individuals with European ethnicity.

Adiponectin gene polymorphisms associated with diabetes mellitus: A descriptive review

Diabetes is currently a growing concern of the age. Prevention and treatment of diabetes is a global health priority. Adiponectin is an adipocyte derived protein hormone that enhances insulin sensitivity and ameliorates diabetes by enhancing fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and reducing glucose production in the liver. Low serum adiponectin concentrations are associated with diabetes, central obesity, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. Adiponectin gene is located on chromosome 3q27, where a locus of susceptibility to diabetes was mapped. Several cross-sectional studies showed that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) were associated with diabetes. SNPs in ADIPOQ help in assessing the association of common variants with levels of adiponectin and the risk of diabetes. Two common SNPs, rs2241766 and rs1501299, have been linked significantly to type 1 diabetes mellitus which endow the world with a block of haplotypes. Experimental evidences also suggest that rs1501299, rs2241766, rs266729, rs17366743, rs17300539, rs182052, rs822396, rs17846866, rs3774261 and rs822393 are significantly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus which is the predominant form of the disease. In addition, rs2241766 and rs266729 are extensively associated with gestational diabetes, a condition that develops in women during pregnancy. Therefore not a particular single mutation but a number of SNPs in adiponectin gene could be a risk factor for developing diabetes among the individuals worldwide. This study firmly suggests that adiponectin plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of type 1, type 2 and gestational diabetes mellitus.

Associations of the Polymorphisms in ADIPOQ with Circulating Levels of Adiponectin and Lipids: A Meta-Analysis

The relationships between the rs266729, rs1501299, and rs2241766 polymorphisms in adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) and circulating levels of adiponectin and lipids remain to be clarified. Databases including PubMed and Embase were searched for eligible studies. The random-effects model was used, and standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated to estimate the differences in circulating levels of adiponectin and lipids between the subjects with different genotypes. A total of 12 810, 17 319, and 21 361 subjects were identified in the analyses for the rs266729, rs1501299, and rs2241766 polymorphisms, respectively. G allele carriers of the rs266729 polymorphism had lower levels of adiponectin (SMD=-0.28, 95% CI=-0.43 to-0.12) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (SMD=-0.10, 95% CI=-0.17 to-0.02) than CC homozygotes; T allele carriers of the rs1501299 polymorphism had higher levels of adiponectin (SMD=0.21, 95% CI=0.05 to 0.36) and HDL-C (SMD=0.09, 95% CI=0.04 to 0.15) and lower levels of triglycerides (SMD=-0.06, 95% CI=-0.12 to-0.01) than GG homozygotes; G allele carriers of the rs2241766 polymorphism had lower levels of adiponectin (SMD=-0.18, 95% CI=-0.31 to-0.05) and HDL-C (SMD=-0.12, 95% CI=-0.20 to-0.04) than TT homozygotes. This meta-analysis suggests that the rs266729, rs1501299, and rs2241766 polymorphisms of ADIPOQ are significantly associated with circulating levels of adiponectin and lipids, which may partly explain the associations between these polymorphisms and coronary artery disease.

The Association between Adiponectin Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Side Effects of Isotretinoin in Acne Patients

Background

Acne is a common condition of pilosebaceous follicle especially among young. Clinically, the most used medication in the treatment of moderate to severe acne is oral isotretinoin. However, interindividual variability in therapeutic response to isotretinoin and many side effects such as musculoskeletal pain, headache, and alteration in lipid profile can be seen with this treatment.

Aim

In this study, the effect of genetic polymorphisms, rs2241766 and rs1501299, of the adiponectin gene was investigated in relation to the side effects of isotretinoin-treated young adult acne patients (n = 230).

Methods

Several biochemical parameters were measured at baseline and after treatments with isotretinoin. The ADIPOQ gene SNPs, rs2241766 and rs1501299, were genotyped in 230 patients.

Results

Alterations in lipid profile with a significant increase of ALT (P=0.007) were detected after isotretinoin treatment. Moreover, percentage change in HDL following isotretinoin treatment was significantly associated with rs1501299 (P=0.008). On the other hand, no associations between examined SNPs and side effects of isotretinoin and other lipid parameters (total cholesterol, LDL, and triglycerides) or liver function enzymes (ALT and AST) were detected.

Conclusions

Current findings showed that rs1501299 of the ADIPOQ gene might be associated with changes in HDL level in acne patients following treatment with isotretinoin.

Associations between three common single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs266729, rs2241766, and rs1501299) of ADIPOQ and cardiovascular disease: a meta-analysis

Background

Inconsistencies have existed in research findings on the association between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ADIPOQ, triggering this up-to-date meta-analysis.

Methods

We searched for relevant studies in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP, and WanFang databases up to 1st July 2017. We included 19,106 cases and 31,629 controls from 65 published articles in this meta-analysis. STATA 12.0 software was used for all statistical analyses.

Results

Our results showed that rs266729 polymorphism was associated with the increased risk of CVD in dominant model or in heterozygote model; rs2241766 polymorphism was associated with the increased risk of CVD in the genetic models (allelic, dominant, recessive, heterozygote, and homozygote). In subgroup analysis, significant associations were found in different subgroups with the three SNPs. Meta-regression and subgroup analysis showed that heterogeneity might be explained by other confounding factors. Sensitivity analysis revealed that the results of our meta-analysis were stable and robust. In addition, the results of trial sequential analysis showed that evidences of our results are sufficient to reach concrete conclusions.

Conclusions

In conclusion, our meta-analysis found significant increased CVD risk is associated with rs266729 and rs2241766, but not associated with rs1501299.
