Figure 2. Male offspring of fat-fed dams had an increased pressor and chronotropic response during acute stress.

Figure 2

(A, B) SBP and (D, E) HR responses during 30 min of acute stress and 120 min of recovery, before (A, D) and after adrenergic receptor blockade (B, E) in male offspring born to dams fed a control (open circles) or a fat diet (closed circles), n = 11 per group before blockade; n = 5 per group after blockade. *P≤0.05, **P≤0.01 versus control. (C) Area under the curve (AUC) for SBP and (F) HR during stress before and after blockade in male offspring born to dams fed a control (unfilled bars) or a fat diet (filled bars), n = 11 per group before blockade; n = 5 per group after blockade. *P≤0.05, **P≤0.01 versus control. †††P≤0.001 versus before blockade. Error bars represent mean±SEM.
