Circadian disruption increases serum glucose levels. At weaning, dams in the CD group had higher serum (A) glucose (t = 2.836, df = 8, P = 0.022) but similar levels of (B) free fatty acids (FFAs; t = 0.3135, df = 8, P = 0.762), (C) triglycerides (t = 0.4747, df = 8, P = 0.648), (D) cholesterol (t = 0.8841, df = 8, P = 0.402), and (E) high density lipoprotein (HDLc; t = 1.141, df = 8, P = 0.287) compared to dams in the CL group. Data are presented as mean ± SEM and analyzed with Student's 2-tailed unpaired t-tests, *P < 0.05, n = 5 per group.
