Cross-fostering influences dietary responsiveness. (A) Body fat increase in SWR and A×B19 strains during 8 wk of the HF/HS diet. (B) Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCoA) of unweighted UniFrac distances for fecal samples after cross-fostering newborn SWR and A×B19 pups between parents (blue = A×B19 mothers, red = SWR mothers, and green = cross-fostered SWR pups), P < 0.05 for unweighted UniFrac using Student's t-test with 1000 Monte Carlo simulations. (C) Body fat changes after cross-fostering SWR pups with A×B19 mother (CF-SWR) compared to SWR and A×B19 controls. (D) Total body fat percentage after 8 wk of HF/HS feeding. (E) Plasma triglycerides (TG) levels. (F) PCoA of unweighted UniFrac distances for cecum samples after 8 wk of the HF/HS diet (blue = A×B19, red = SWR, green = cross-fostered SWR). Significant differences: (*) P < 0.05, (****) P < 0.0001, according to unpaired two-tailed Student's t-test. See also Supplemental Figure 2.
