Figure 2

Serum insulin levels (ng/mL) of all study groups at (a) week 5 and (b) week 30 of age. Data are presented as mean ± SD (). CF1-CD: F1 offspring of control mothers under control diet, CF1-HCD: F1 offspring of control mothers under high-caloric diet, OF1-CD: F1 offspring of obese mothers under control diet, and OF1-HCD: F1 offspring of obese mothers under high-caloric diet; MF1-CD: F1 offspring of malnourished mothers under control diet and MF1-HCD: F1 offspring of malnourished mothers under high-caloric diet. The symbol indicates significant difference from CF1-CD by ANOVA (), the symbol # indicates significant difference from CF-HCD by ANOVA (), and the symbol @ indicates significant difference from male at each age by -test.
