    Evidence for liver energy metabolism programming in offspring subjected to intrauterine undernutrition during midgestation

    Maternal undernutrition is a concerning problem for human health [ 1 ] and animal husbandry production [ 2 ]. Stress caused by nutrient deficiency in utero often induces metabolic disturbances for adjustment to the nutrient-poor environment [ 3 , 4 …]. These metabolic disturbances are programmed in the fetus [

    Maternal nutrient restriction in the ewe from early to midgestation programs reduced steroidogenic enzyme expression and tended to reduce progesterone content of corpora lutea, as well as circulating progesterone in nonpregnant aged female offspring

    Early pregnancy loss in livestock is a serious economic problem and has been attributed to insufficient circulating progesterone concentrations [ 1 , 2 ]. It has been reported that female offspring born to ewes undernourished during late gestation …
