mRNA expression of key insulin signaling components in the gastrocnemius muscle at 16 weeks. mRNA levels of Irs-1, Akt2 and Glut4 were assessed by quantitative PCR in the gastrocnemius of rats from normal litters (NL, open bars) and small litters (SL, closed bars). Results are expressed as mean ± S.E.M (n = 6, 4 litters from each group). * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01
