  1. Offspring were from dams fed complete (CON) or methyl-deficient (MD) diets. All data are expressed in arbitrary units as relative expression corrected for 18S rRNA. n = number of animals, 1 per litter chosen at random from the total pool of 18 litters (CON) and 17 litters (MD). Data compared by Student’s t test
