“…Increased promoter methylation in the F1 IUGR rat liver dampens IGF-1 expression in what is also thought to be an additional epigenetically mediated adaptive mechanism (33). It is well established that the IGF-1 gene sequence has variable epigenetic regulation, and accompanying transcriptional changes have been shown repeatedly and by multiple investigators (33,35,39,54). Despite this, the mechanisms for multigenerational inheritance observed here are thus far unclear.…”

“…11 The choice of dose levels was based on literature data coupled with preliminary dose-response studies to avoid sublethal effects at the top dose level. 8,9 The median lethal dose of caffeine administered orally to rats is known to be 192 mg/kg. 12 The highest dose (120 mg/kg) was chosen in this study based on the study, which showed no renal toxicity and demonstrated inhibition of long bone growth in prepubertal rats.…”

“…Caffeine adversely affects endochondral ossification during the course of fetal skeletal growth, and maternal exposure to caffeine causes delayed and abnormal fetal skeletal development. [7][8][9] Although caffeine's detrimental effects on endochondral ossification during the prenatal period have been widely demonstrated, data on its effects on longitudinal bone growth during the pubertal growth spurt are particularly sparse. To the best of our knowledge, there are no interventional studies dedicated to assessing the effects of different doses and exposure durations of caffeine on skeletal development during puberty.…”

“…Fetal blood samples were collected, and the serum were separated to measure CORT concentrations following the protocol of the ELISA kit (Shen et al, 2014). Fetal femora were immediately harvested for length measurement and histological analyses, including histochemical staining, immunohistochemical assays and genes expression analysis (Tan et al, 2012).…”
