Novel adiponectin variants identified in type 2 diabetic patients reveal multimerization and secretion defects.

Novel adiponectin variants identified in type 2 diabetic patients reveal multimerization and secretion defects.

ADIPOQ, encoding adiponectin, is a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes (T2D) identified by genome-wide linkage analyses with supporting evidence showing the protein function in sensitizing insulin actions. In an endeavor to characterize candidate genes causing T2D in Thai patients, we identified 10 n...
