HCAL diet exposure alters fetal liver fatty acid profiles. Modifications by in utero metformin exposure. Fetuses were exposed to either a normal (NORM) or a high calorie (HCAL) maternal diet (±metformin, MET), as described in the Methods. Fetal liver total triglyceride-associated fatty acid (TG-FA) concentrations (a), saturated fatty acids (SFA, b), monounsaturated FA (MUFA, c), polyunsaturated FA (PUFA, d), and n3 FA (e) profiles of the fetal livers were determined on embryonic day 19. Data are shown as mean ± SD.*p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001
