The influence of Propionic Acid (PA) on the secretion of chemokines and cytokines by subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). SAT explants of each subject were incubated in triplicate with or without 3 mM PA for 24 h. Secreted quantities of chemokines and cytokine in the media were determined by multiplex-ELISA. Results are expressed as relative quantities (RQ) and compared to the control (without PA; C). (N = 10). **, P < 0.01, ***, P < 0.001 vs. control (without PA; C). M, mean
