Background:
Adiponectin is a recognized antiatherogenic molecule; this study was aimed at clarifying the effects of adiponectin variants on lipid and adiponectin levels.
Methods:
By searching PubMed and Cochrane databases for studies published before March 31, 2022, a total of 86,610 individuals were included in the analysis.
Results:
Variants of rs2241766 and rs266729 were associated with decreased adiponectin and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), as well as increased triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. In contrast, the rs1501299 variant was correlated with increased adiponectin and HDL-C, as well as decreased TG, TC, and LDL-C levels. Subgroup analysis indicated that the significant effect of the rs2241766 and rs266729 variants on lipid profile was predominant in Chinese, while the significant effect of the rs1501299 variant on lipid profile was primarily in Caucasians. Moreover, a stronger effect of the rs2241766 and rs1501299 variants on LDL-C levels was observed in males, while a considerable effect of the rs266729 variant on LDL-C levels was observed in children.
Conclusions:
The present study indicated that Chinese with the rs2241766 and rs266729 variants were at high risk of dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, or coronary artery disease (CAD). Males with the rs2241766 variant were at high risk of CAD. Children with the rs266729 variant had a high risk to develop dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, and even early onset of CAD in the future. These findings are beneficial to clinical physicians to choose different management strategies for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention.

Adrenaline ≥ Noradrenaline >> Isoprenaline
α-adrenoceptors are further divided into α1 and α2-adrenoceptors.
α1-Adrenoceptors: These receptors are located postsynaptically on the effector organs and cause constriction of smooth muscle mediated by activation of phospholipase...

Isoprenaline > Adrenaline > Noradrenaline
Neurotransmitter binding to these receptors causes activation of adenylyl cyclase resulting in increased concentrations of cAMP and modulation of calcium ion channels within the cell. They are further classified into β1, β2, and β3 subtypes.
