In utero and early-life macronutrient exposures have long-term impacts on the metabolic health of female offspring. A: body weights of female BALB/c offspring at 91 days of age. B: blood glucose concentration of postnatal day 91 (PND91)-day old female offspring over 2 h following intraperitoneal injection of 2 mg/kg sucrose solution. C: comparison of glucose tolerance test curves by calculation of the area under each curve seen in B. D: wet weight of murine liver tissue at necropsy. E: VAT weight of female BALB/c mice at necropsy. F: wet weight of BALB/c L4/5 mammary glands at necropsy. *P < 0.05. OID, obesity-inducing diet.
