Effects of chronic caffeine ingestion on growth and myocardial function (42114)

Abstract Experiments were conducted to determine whether chronic caffeine consumption during early growth and development affected cardiac performance and development of adipose tissue. Dams were fed a nutritionally complete diet with or without the addition of 10 mg/kg caffeine during lactation. Af...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Experiments were conducted to determine whether chronic caffeine consumption during early growth and development affected cardiac performance and development of adipose tissue. Dams were fed a nutritionally complete diet with or without the addition of 10 mg/kg caffeine during lactation. After weaning, the pups were maintained on this diet until they were sacrificed at 88 days of age. Body weight at the time of sacrifice was comparable for both groups. The hearts from caffeine-fed animals were significantly (P
