Objective:
The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between adiponectin (APN)+45T/G and +276G/T polymorphisms and in-stent restenosis (ISR).
Patients And Methods:
A total of 150 patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were divided into the ISR group and non-ISR group. The levels of blood biochemical indicators were measured, and APN+45T/G and +276G/T polymorphisms were detected by TaqMan probes.
Results:
Cholesterol levels in the IRS group were significantly higher than those in the non-ISR group (p<0.05). The frequency of the GG genotype and G allele of the APN+45T/G locus in the ISR group were significantly higher than those in the non-ISR group (p<0.05). The frequency of the GG genotype and G allele of the APN+276G/T locus in the ISR group were significantly higher than those in the non-ISR group (p<0.05).
Conclusions:
APN+45T/G and +276G/T polymorphisms were associated with susceptibility to ISR, and carrying the G allele of the APN+45T/G and +276G/T loci can significantly increase the risk of ISR.

Coronary Circulation
Coronary circulation begins at the base of the aorta, where two main arteries arise—the left and right coronary arteries. These arteries encircle the heart in the coronary sulcus and supply the...
