Table 3.

Body weight recorded at adulthood (60–70 days of age) from mice exposed to CIS (C) and TRANS (T) dietary fatty acids during in utero growth and neonatal development. All offspring were weaned (21 days) to the CIS diet.

Sex	Measurement	Dietary Groups				P values
		CC	TC	CT	TT	Diet (P)	Diet (L)	Interaction
Female	Adult body weight (g)	19.6 ± 0.55	18.81 ± 0.30	19.54 ± 0.33	18.06 ± 0.64	0.04	0.45	0.52
Male	Adult body weight (g)	25.44 ± 0.55	27.13 ± 0.70	24.92 ± 0.90	24.68 ± 0.61	0.35	0.06	0.22

Values are means ± SEM (n=5–16/group).

Two-way ANOVA analysis of diet exposure at each developmental stage with statistics for each effect and their interaction are shown. Females exposed to trans fatty acid during pregnancy were smaller at adulthood.
