Figure 4From: 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 offspringProtein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF- 2), angiopoietin- 1 (ANG- 1) and angiopoietin- 2 (ANG- 2) in corpora luteal tissue from aged female offspring of control and nutrient-restricted dams. Control (n=4, open bars) and Nutrient-restricted (n=4, solid bars) offspring.Back to article page
