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

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.
