Correlation between TNF-α gene expression in SAT and IL-6 geneexpression in SAT (a), VEGF-A gene expression in SAT (b). The gene expression levels were assessed by quantitative real-time PCR assay in SAT from 23 women with MS and the control group (10 women). The Pearson correlation coefficients (r) are shown on the figure and the P value if statistically significant with a P < 0.05.
