Performances in an accelerating rotating rod task.
<p>Data are expressed as the time standing on the rotating rod in s. Values are means ± SEM, nâ=â6 in each dietary group. Differences were considered significant between control (CTL) and tuna oil supplemented animals (Ï3) with p<0.05.</p
Performances in a circular maze.
<p>A. Rate of success, expressed as the ratio of successful trials on the total number of trials (%). B. Time before reaching the right exit (s). C. Total number of visits. Values are means ± SEM, nâ=â6 in each dietary group. Differences were considered significant between control (CTL) and tuna oil supplemented animals (Ï3) with p<0.05.</p
Performances in an open field (OF) task.
<p>A. Total distance travelled (cm). B. Activity duration (s). C. Number of times the animals crossed the central zone. Values are means ± SEM, nâ=â6 in each dietary group. Differences were considered significant between control (CTL) and tuna oil supplemented animals (Ï3) with p<0.05.</p
Spontaneous night and day locomotor activity.
<p>Data were recorded during 5 consecutive 24 h periods (expressed in arbitrary units of locomotor activity). Values are means ± SEM, nâ=â6 in each dietary group. Differences were considered significant between control (CTL) and tuna oil supplemented animals (Ï3) with p<0.05.</p

Additional file 4: of Expression of epigenetic machinery genes is sensitive to maternal obesity and weight loss in relation to fetal growth in mice
Expression level and adjusted P values of 92 genes in the fetal liver, placental labyrinth, and junctional zone. We assessed the expression level of 60 epigenetic machinery genes and 32 genes implicated in metabolism or development in CTRL, OB, and WL females at E18.5 using TaqMan low-density arrays. Data are represented as mean expression levelsâ±âSt.Dev. *âdifferentially expressed genes. NAânon-amplified. Significant differences (P adjâ<â0.05) are indicated in red
