摘要: In humans a suboptimal diet during development has negative outcomes in offspring. We investigated the behavioral baboons born to mothers undergoing moderate maternal nutrient restriction (MNR). Maternal (n = 7) were fed 70% of food eaten by controls (CTR, n 12) ad libitum throughout gestation and lactation. At 3.3 ± 0.2 (mean standard error mean [SEM]) years age offspring (controls: female [FC, 8], male [MC, 4]; restricted: [FR, 3] [MR, 4]) administered progressive ratio, simple discrimination, intra-/extra-dimension set shift delayed matching sample tasks assess motivation, learning, attention, working memory, respectively. A treatment effect was observed MNR who demonstrated less motivation impaired memory. Nutrient-restricted showed improved while MR learning attentional shifting increased impulsivity. summary, 30% caloric intake long lasting neurobehavioral adolescent baboon
