Abstract


The developmental origins of metabolic disease mechanisms are mostly unknown. Up to 40% of obese women are healthy, while roughly 15% of lean women are not. The implications for their children are difficult to disentangle from environmental factors. We assessed offspring from age-matched female African green monkeys (AMGs [n=44]) classified as metabolically healthy lean (MHL), healthy obese (MHO), unhealthy lean (MUL), and unhealthy obese (MUO) based on adjusted metabolic syndrome criteria (waist >40cm, fasting glucose (FG) >100 mg/dL, SBP >135/DBP >85mmHg and HDL-c Disclosure A.
