From: High-fat diet and chronic stress aggravate adrenal function abnormality induced by prenatal caffeine exposure in male offspring rats

Figure 3

Effects of prenatal caffeine exposure (PCE, 120 mg/kg.d) exposure on the mRNA expression of adrenal insulin-like growth factors 1 (IGF1) pathway with normal and high-fat diets without and with unpredictable chronic stress in adult male rat offspring. Mean ± S.E.M., n = 5, the adrenal samples from two litters were counted as one sample. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01vs respective control. IGF-1R: insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor; AKT1: protein kinase B; SF1: steroidogenic factor 1.
