Figure 7

Effects of prenatal stress on body weight across adulthood. (A) Prenatal stress (PS) significantly increased the body weight of males but not females, and PS males gained the most weight across time. (B) Photo of representative PS (top) and nonstressed (NS, bottom) males from this experiment. Note that the body weights of PS and NS females are completely overlapping, so the symbols for the NS female groups were shifted to the right to allow for visual inspection. NS females, n=10; PS females, n=10; NS males, n=10; PS males, n=10. Data expressed as mean ± SEM. Asterisk (*) indicates a significant difference (p<0.05) between groups.
