The influence of the adiponectin gene on adiponectin concentrations and parameters of metabolic syndrome in non-diabetic Korean women

There is a strong association of the adiponectin SNP276 genotypes and the adiponectin 45-276 haplotypes with circulating adiponectin concentrations in non-diabetic Korean women. In addition, this haplotype is associated with increased insulin concentrations and insulin resistance index only in overweight-obese individuals.
