From NCBI Gene:

This gene is expressed in adipose tissue exclusively. It encodes a protein with similarity to collagens X and VIII and complement factor C1q. The encoded protein circulates in the plasma and is involved with metabolic and hormonal processes. Mutations in this gene are associated with adiponectin deficiency. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

Thanks alot Rasha

Hi, Laith

Maybe you should consider the polymorphisms in the ADIPOQ (rs266729; rs2241766; rs1501299) and ADIPOR1 (rs10920531 in ADIPOR1) genes

Good luck with your studies.

Thank you my colleagues
