ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the distribution of adiponectin +45T/G and +276G/T polymorphisms and its association with the development of Kawasaki disease and coronary artery lesion (CAL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 81 children with Kawasaki disease (among whom 11 had CAL) and 100 normal children who underwent physical examination (control group) were enrolled in a case-control study. Sequencing was performed to investigate the distribution of adiponectin +45T/G and +276G/T polymorphisms.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were no significant differences between the Kawasaki disease and control groups in the frequencies of TT, TG, and GG genotypes and T/G alleles of +45T/G polymorphism in the adiponectin gene (P>0.05). In the Kawasaki disease group, there were also no significant differences in the genotype and allele frequencies of the +45T/G polymorphism between the children with CAL and those without (P>0.05). There were significant differences between the Kawasaki disease and control groups in the frequencies of GG, GT, and TT genotypes and G/T alleles of +276G/T polymorphism in the adiponectin gene (P<0.05). GG genotype was a risk factor for the development of Kawasaki disease (OR=2.313, P=0.006). In the Kawasaki disease group, there was no significant difference in the genotype distribution of the +276G/T polymorphism between the children with CAL and those without (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The adiponectin +276G/T polymorphism may be associated with the development of Kawasaki disease, but not associated with CAL. The adiponectin +45T/G polymorphism may not be associated with Kawasaki disease or CAL.</p>
