Body weight. (a) Body weight (in grams) of SAL and CRF offspring on P9. (b) Body weight (in grams) of SAL and CRF offspring on P21. (c) Body weight (in grams) of SAL and CRF offspring on P58. (d) Body weight (in grams) of CT and LB offspring on P9. (e) Body weight (in grams) of CT and LB offspring on P21. (f) Body weight (in grams) of CT and LB offspring on P58. Results are presented as means SEM. *p < 0.05, t-test; ***p < 0.001, two-way ANOVA, sex effect. n = 5–7 families per group (P9 and P21); n = 10–12 animals per group (P58). SAL, offspring of saline-infused dams; CRF, offspring of corticotropin-releasing factor-infused dams; CT, offspring of control dams; LB, offspring of stressed dams.
