Strain and HFD effects on transcription markers of cellular stress in oocytes (A–C) and cumulus cells (D–F). Marker genes related to mitochondrial and ER UPRs and redox regulatory mechanisms were analyzed in B6 and Swiss mice fed either control or HFD. Data were compared within strain or between the controls of the two strains. Columns display means ± SEM of fold changes relative to housekeeping genes from 4 replicates (pools from 3–4 animals per group each). Significant differences are indicated with an astrisk (P < 0.05). Tendencies are indicated by a dollar sign “$” (P < 0.1 and >0.05).
