The role of Propionic Acid (PA) on the mRNA expression of lipogenesis and insulin sensitivity related markers. Human subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) explants of each subject were incubated in triplicate with or without 3 mM PA for 24 h. PA upregulated the expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), SREBP-1c and GLUT-4. The mRNA expression levels were determined by RT-PCR and shown as relative quantities (RQ) compared to the control (without PA; C). (N = 10). *, P < 0.05, **, P < 0.01, ***, P < 0.001 vs. control (without PA; C). M, mean
