Fig. 8

Representative confocal microscope images after BODIPY 493/503 staining showing lipid droplets (green, panel B1 and B2) in oocytes collected from mice of all treatment groups, after 0, 2, 4 or 6 weeks of preconception care intervention (PCCI). Each image is a z-stack projection of 40 × 1 μm steps. Data are presented as means ± SEM from 1 to 3 oocytes per mouse, collected from 6 to 8 mice per group per time point (panel A). Asterisks (*) indicate significant differences between indicated treatment groups within the same PCCI period (P < 0.05). Values labelled with “§” tend to be different from each other at 0.05 < P < 0.1
