Additionally, LP offspring fail to regenerate their β-cells following depletion with streptozotocin (STZ), in contrast to control-fed offspring that are capable of β-cell regeneration. Our objective was to identify genes and signalling pathways that may be critically altered in LP offspring rendering them susceptible to develop long term glucose intolerance and decreased β-cell plasticity. Pregnant Balb/C mice were place on a control (20% protein) or isocaloric low protein (8%) diet for the period of gestation, and then all dams were switch to the control diet at birth. Female offspring were injected with streptozotocin (35 mg/kg body weight; sodium citrate buffer 0.1 mol/L, pH 4.5) or vehicle (sham). Total RNA was extracted from pancreas of 30 day old female offspring (n=3) and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChips.http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-38215http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-38215/samples/
