Maternal high fat diet alters skeletal muscle mitochondrial catalytic activity in adult male rat offspring.

Maternal high fat diet alters skeletal muscle mitochondrial catalytic activity in adult male rat offspring.

A maternal high-fat (HF) diet during pregnancy can lead to metabolic compromise such as insulin resistance in adult offspring. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction is one mechanism contributing to metabolic impairments in insulin resistant states. Therefore, the present study aimed to investiga...
