g55, at Day 55 of gestation of the fetus; g90, at Day 90 of gestation of the fetus; d160, at Day 160 of offspring; puberty, upon the offspring reaching puberty. CON, normal dietary group and gilts were fed diets containing 7.27% crude fat during of gestation; HFD, high fat dietary group and gilts were fed diets containing 11.78% crude fat during of gestation. MDA, determine malondialdehyde; T-SOD, total superoxide dismutase; CuZn-SOD, cytoplasmic copper/zinc superoxide dismutase; GR, glutathione reductase; GPx, glutathione peroxidase; T-AOC, total antioxidative capability (n = 4 for each group, the fetus samples were from 4 gilts, and each gilt provided 2 fetuses; the calculated average values of the two fetal ovaries for each gilt were used in the statistical analysis).
