Journal ArticleDOI
Role of prolactin, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 in mammary gland involution in the dairy cow.
TL;DR: A relationship between levels of apoptosis and IGFBP-5 mRNA expression in the bovine mammary gland is demonstrated and the involvement of this binding protein programmed cell death and its relationship with the main lactogenic hormones is confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin, GH, PRL, insulin and metabolic parameters throughout the dry period and lactation in dairy cows.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that, in dairy cows, leptin may represent a 'metabolic signal' of animal's status of fattening and nutritional level; in addition, leptin seems to be influenced by photoperiod and environmental temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
5'-deiodinase activity and circulating thyronines in lactating cows.
TL;DR: The findings suggest a relationship between the hypothyroid status of lactating cows and the rearrangement of organ-specific 5'-deiodinase activity related to the maintenance of the udder's function.
