Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, presents a formidable global health challenge with its associated complications. Adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, has emerged as a significant player in glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Beyond its metabolic effects, adiponectin exerts anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and vasoprotective properties, making it an appealing therapeutic target for mitigating diabetic complications. The molecular mechanisms by which adiponectin impacts critical pathways implicated in diabetic nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy, and cardiovascular problems are thoroughly examined in this study. In addition, we explore possible treatment options for increasing adiponectin levels or improving its downstream signaling. The multifaceted protective roles of adiponectin in diabetic complications suggest its potential as a novel therapeutic avenue. However, further translational studies and clinical trials are warranted to fully harness the therapeutic potential of adiponectin in the management of diabetic complications. This review highlights adiponectin as a promising target for the treatment of diverse diabetic complications and encourages continued research in this pivotal area of diabetes therapeutics.

BMC Endocr Disord 2023; 23:248. [PMID: 37953238 PMCID: PMC10641948 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-023-01479-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Several studies have associated the presence of ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms with insulin resistance, adiponectin levels, and metabolic diseases such as diabetes, although with varying degrees of correlation depending on ethnicity. Here we aim to identify individual's susceptibility to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the presence of T45G and G276T single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the ADIPOQ gene among Filipino pregnant women. A total of 285 pregnant women (95 GDM cases and 190 controls) were included in this study. Two ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms were genotyped using TaqMan assay. Results of SNP genotyping showed no significant differences in the frequencies of TT, TG and GG genotypes of T45G SNP between the GDM and control group [p = 1.0000, 0.6179, 0.5797; OR (95%CI) = 1.030 (0.582-1.874), 1.135 (0.683-1.828), 0.833 (0.481-1.420)]. Similarly, the frequencies of GG, GT, and TT genotypes of G276T SNP were comparable in both groups [p = 0.8002, 1.0000, 0.3466; OR (95%CI) = 1.090 (0.654-1.785), 1.022 (0.616-1.665), 0.433 (0.092-1.698)]. Moreover, although adiponectin levels were significantly decreased in GDM group (p = 0.0196) and have shown substantial negative correlations with FBS, 1-hour OGTT, 2-hour OGTT, and HOMA-IR (p < 0.05), they were not significantly different according to genotypes of T45G and G276T polymorphisms both in GDM and control group. Our results suggest that neither of the two ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms influence adiponectin levels and development of GDM in a Filipino population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the most common complications of diabetes, with approximately 30-40% of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and 20% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus eventually developing DKD. If DKD is not controlled in the early clinical stage and proteinuria develops, the disease will progress to end-stage renal disease. The pathogenesis of DKD remains largely unknown and is multifactorial, likely due to interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Familial clustering also supports a critical role of hereditary factors in DKD. The development of gene detection technology has promoted the exploration of DKD susceptibility genes in different cohorts of patients with diabetes. Identifying susceptibility genes can provide insights into the pathogenesis of DKD, as well as a basis for its clinical diagnosis and therapy. RESULTS Numerous candidate gene loci have been found to be associated with DKD, many of which play critical regulatory roles in the pathogenesis of this disease, including genes involved in glycol-metabolism, lipid metabolism, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, inflammation and oxidative stress. In this review, we summarize the functions of several susceptibility genes involved in the development of DKD. CONCLUSION Based on our findings, we recommend that studying susceptibility gene polymorphisms can lead to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of DKD and could help prevent this disease or improve its outcomes.

A Meta-analysis of ADIPOQ rs2241766 polymorphism association with type 2 diabetes. J Diabetes Metab Disord 2022; 21:1895-1901. [PMID: 36404807 PMCID: PMC9672214 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-022-01086-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Objective There is extensive research on the association between polymorphisms in the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The present meta-analytic study explored the association between ADIPOQ rs2241766 polymorphisms and T2D. Metolds Articles were collected by searching Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed electronic databases until 2021. They were searched using a systematic search of original and sensitive English keywords and their equivalent keywords based on the keywords "type 2 diabetes", "ADIPOQ", and "rs2241766". The article selection criteria were based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) flow diagram. Results The results revealed that there was no bias in this study. Some studies, such as Joshaghani et al. (odds ratio [OR] = 2.18), Hussain et al. (OR = 2.12), Momin (OR = 4.45), and Amal et al. (OR = 1.84), showed an increasing effect of ADIPOQ rs266729 polymorphism on T2D with 95% CI (P ˂ 0.01), while some have shown no significant association between them. Conclusion The results of this meta-analytic study showed the relationship between ADIPOQ and rs2241766. Also, it was found that Rs2241766 polymorphism and allele increase the risk, and rs2241766 increases the risk of developing T2D (OR = 1.29).

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that leads to the dysfunction of various tissues and organs, including eyes, kidneys, and cardiovascular system. According to the World Health Organization, diabetes prevalence is 8.8% globally among whom about 90% of cases are type 2 diabetes. There are not any significant clinical manifestations in the primary stages of diabetes. Therefore, screening can be an efficient way to reduce the diabetic complications. Over the recent decades, the prevalence of diabetes has increased alarmingly among the Middle East population, which has imposed exorbitant costs on the health care system in this region. Given that the genetic changes are among the important risk factors associated with predisposing people to diabetes, we examined the role of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the pathogenesis of diabetes among Middle East population. In the present review, we assessed the molecular pathology of diabetes in the Middle East population that paves the way for introducing an efficient SNP-based diagnostic panel for diabetes screening among the Middle East population. Since, the Middle East has a population of 370 million people; the current review can be a reliable model for the introduction of SNP-based diagnostic panels in other populations and countries around the world.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This meta-analysis was performed to obtain a more comprehensive estimation of the role of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2241766 in the ADIPOQ gene in the occurrence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). METHODS Relevant studies were identified from digital databases such as Embase, PubMed, Medline, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, WanFang, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). Odds ratios (ORs) with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were pooled by means of fixed- or random-effects models. Interstudy heterogeneity was examined using the Q test and I 2 statistic, and sensitivity analysis was implemented to test the statistical stability of the overall estimates. Begg's funnel plot and Egger's test were applied to inspect potential publication bias among the included studies. RESULTS The overall ORs reflected a positive correlation between the ADIPOQ rs2241766 polymorphism and susceptibility to DKD in the GG vs. TT and GG vs. TT+TG comparisons (OR = 1.51, 95%CI = 1.16 - 1.95; OR = 1.43, 95%CI = 1.11 - 1.85). After stratification analyses by ethnicity and disease type, a similar trend was also revealed in the Caucasian and African subgroups as well as in the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) subgroup. CONCLUSION The ADIPOQ rs2241766 polymorphism may be associated with an increased risk of DKD, especially in Caucasian and African populations as well as in T2DM patients.

Abstract
AIMS T2DM reach epidemic levels in the Arab countries. In this study, we aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to underline the susceptibility genetic profile of Arab patients with T2DM that result from SNPs. METHODS We searched four literature databases (PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct and Web of Science) through January 2019. We included all SNPs in candidate genes with an OR > 1 that were associated with T2DM among Arab patients with T2DM. Statistical programs such as software Review Manager (Version 5.02) and STATA (Version 15.1) were used. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a random effects model or a fixed effect model depending on the heterogeneity among studies. I2 statistics and Egger's tests were performed to assess heterogeneity and publication bias. RESULTS Out of 2245 studies, 47 were used for meta-analysis. We captured 31,307 cases and 26,464 controls in which we collected 71 SNPs in 32 genes. A pooled meta-analysis demonstrated 24-69% increase in T2DM risk. Among the 57 SNPs (in 32 genes) that were not included in the meta-analysis, the OR for diabetes ranged from 1.02 to 5.10, with a median of 1.38 (interquartile range 1.33-2.09). Ten studies examined the association between the TCF7L2 polymorphism rs7903146 and T2DM, leading to an aggregated OR of 1.34 (95%CI 1.27-1.41). CONCLUSION The genetic profile that confer susceptibility to T2DM in Arab patients is diverse. This study may serve as a platform for designing a gene panel for testing the susceptibility to T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals of African ethnicity are disproportionately burdened with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, despite the genetic link, genetic association studies of CKD in African populations are lacking. METHODS We conducted a systematic review to critically evaluate the existing studies on CKD genetic risk inferred by polymorphism(s) amongst African populations in Africa. The study followed the HuGE handbook and PRISMA protocol. We included studies reporting on the association of polymorphism(s) with prevalent CKD, end-stage renaldisease (ESRD) or CKD-associated traits. Given the very few studies investigating the effects of the same single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on CKD risk, a narrative synthesis of the evidence was conducted. RESULTS A total of 30 polymorphisms in 11 genes were investigated for their association with CKD, ESRD or related traits, all using the candidate-gene approach. Of all the included genes, MYH9, AT1R and MTHFR genes failed to predict CKD or related traits, while variants in the APOL1, apoE, eNOS, XPD, XRCC1, renalase, ADIPOQ, and CCR2 genes were associated with CKD or other related traits. Two SNPs (rs73885319, rs60910145) and haplotypes (G-A-G; G1; G2) of the apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene were studied in more than one population group, with similar association with prevalent CKD observed. The remaining polymorphisms were investigated in single studies. CONCLUSION According to this systematic review, there is currently insufficient evidence of the specific polymorphisms that poses African populations at an increased risk of CKD. Large-scale genetic studies are warranted to better understand susceptibility polymorphisms, specific to African populations.

Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) poses a severe threat to global public health. Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common complications of diabetes and the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Approximately 30-40% of DM patients in the world progress to ESRD, which emphasizes the effect of genetic factors on DN. Family clustering also supports the important role of hereditary factors in DN and ESRD. Therefore, a large number of genetic studies have been carried out to identify susceptibility genes in different diabetic cohorts. Extensive susceptibility genes of DN and ESRD have not been identified until recently. Summary and Key Messages Some of these associated genes function as pivotal regulators in the pathogenesis of DN, such as those related to glycometabolism and lipid metabolism. However, the functions of most of these genes remain unclear. In this article, we review several susceptibility genes according to their genetic functions to make it easier to determine their exact effect on DN and to provide a better understanding of the advancements from genetic studies. However, several challenges associated with investigating the genetic factors of DN still exist. For instance, it is difficult to determine whether these variants affect the expression of the protein they encode or other cytokines. More efforts should be made to determine how these genes influence the progression of DN. In addition, many results could not be replicated among races, suggesting that the association between genetic polymorphisms and DN is race-specific. Therefore, large, well-designed studies involving more relevant variables and ethnic groups and more relevant functional studies are urgently needed. These studies may be beneficial and retard the progression of DN by early intervention, especially for patients who carry certain risk alleles or genotypes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current nutritional transition process contributes further to accelerate the onset of metabolic disorders, as do a number of environmental factors that lead to the diagnosis of chronic diseases, as a diet of low nutritional value, is possibly related to the incidence of metabolic syndrome. In addition to these factors, metabolic syndrome may also be related to genetic factors, the ADIPOQ + 45T> G polymorphism has been associated with serum adiponectin levels, insulin sensitivity, and obesity, which affects adiponectin levels act as protective factor for cardiovascular disease. In this way, the present study aimed to analyze the possible association between the ADIPOQ + 45T> G gene polymorphism, usual diet and metabolic syndrome in the elderly. METHODS We evaluated inflammatory and biochemical markers compared with older age groups (age 60 years) with and without metabolic syndrome. In addition to the anthropometric measurements of weight, height and waist circumference, the ADIPOQ + 45T> G gene polymorphism was determined by PCR- RFLP, and food consumption was investigated using a food frequency questionnaire. RESULTS The study included 111 elderly individuals. Our main results show that there was a significant relationship between the habitual consumption of milk for the group that had metabolic syndrome (p < 0.05). HDL-c levels, glucose, triglycerides, diastolic blood pressure and weight, height and waist circumference had to be altered in patients with metabolic syndrome. There was an association between habitual dietary intake of white meat with haplotypes TG and GG. CONCLUSION We conclude that the relationship between the habitual consumption of certain food groups and ADIPOQ indicates the need for further studies to develop a better understanding of this relationship; however, there was no association between the ADIPOQ + 45T> G gene polymorphism and metabolic syndrome in the group of elderly studied.

Abstract
Background: Adiponectin is an abundant adipose tissue–derived protein with anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic properties. Plasma adiponectin levels are decreased in obesity, type 2 diabetes, and coronary artery disease and low adiponectin levels also predict insulin resistance (IR). Methods: Case-control study in which 642 male and female subjects were participated from the North Indian population. Lipid, insulin, leptin and adiponectin level were estimated using standard protocols by commercially available test kits. Single nucleotide polymorphisms +45T>G and +276G>T of the AMP1 (adiponectin) gene was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Results: Levels of adiponectin, insulin, homeostasis model assessment-IR index (HOMA-IR index), systolic blood pressure and fat mass showed significant differences between male and female subjects. Serum adiponectin level showed highly significant association with both the +45 and the +276 genotypes. The common haplotype triglyceride (TG) showed a significantly lower adiponectin value than other haplotypes (P = 0.0001). A clear trend of decreasing adiponectin levels per copy of the common haplotype was observed. Nonobese insulin sensitive subjects showed a higher adiponectin value (P = 0.0006) than nonobese insulin resistant subjects. The values of blood pressure, adiponectin, insulin, HOMA-IR, total-cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol significantly associated with TG haplotype. Conclusions: We observed the very strong association of the adiponectin 45-276 genotypes and haplotypes with adiponectin levels in healthy north Indian population and TG haplotypes also associated with metabolic parameters of the IR syndrome.
