Pup growth and body composition were affected by PNGR. (a) Experimental design. (b) Body weight curves and (c) body weight gain after weaning in control (CTRL) (n = 7 litters) and postnatal growth restriction (PNGR) (n = 6 litters) groups. (d) Body composition (purple = visceral fat mass; green = subcutaneous fat mass; blue = lean mass), (e) fat mass and (f) lean mass in adult mice with PNGR (n = 12 from 5 litters) and CTRL mice (n = 10 from 3 litters) assessed with computed tomography scanner. Results are representative of 3 independent experiments. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
