Research Abstract |
We found that the neonates carrying the G allele of rs266729 had a significantly greater birth weight SD score than those homozygous for the C allele. However, this difference wasn't significant after adjustment for cord blood adiponectin. The rs266729 SNP was strongly associated with cord blood adiponectin. This association remained after adjustment for birth weight SD score. Our results suggest that the influence of the rs266729 SNP in ADIPOQ on birth weight may be dependent on circulating adiponectin.
