Adiponectin, an adipocyte‐derived protein, is known to play a key role in the processes leading to atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD) through its anti‐atherogenic, anti‐inflammatory, antioxidative, and anti‐apoptotic properties. In the current study, we have studied the association of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) +45 T>G (rs2241766) and +276 G>T (rs1501299) of the adiponectin gene with coronary artery disease (CAD) on an Arab/North‐African population from Tunisia.
