Maternal protein restriction during lactation programs peripheral insulin sensitivity and reduces UCP1 abundance in interscapular brown adipose tissue of adult male Wistar rats
Abstract Maternal protein restriction during lactation is associated with stunted growth and hyperphagia in adult offspring, yet its long-term effects on mitochondrial uncoupling-related proteins in interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT) remain unknown. This study investigated how postnatal protein undernutrition af...
