Effect of maternal food restriction (MFR) on the expression of key adipogenic mRNAs in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) of the resultant offspring. (A) By qRT-PCR, PPARγ and C/EBPα, and their downstream target genes ADRP, SREBP1, and LPL mRNA were up-regulated in MFR BMSCs compared to control cells. (B) Levels of adipogenic protein in BMSCs of the MFR offspring. By Western blot analysis, the protein levels of PPARγ, ADRP, and C/EBPα were up-regulated in MFR BMSCs compared to control cells (N=3, * p <.05, ***p<0.01 vs control).
