Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine control of energy metabolism in the cow: comparison of the levels of hormones (prolactin, growth hormone, insulin and thyroxine) and metabolites in the plasma of high- and low-yielding cattle at various stages of lactation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine Control of Energy Metabolism in the Cow: Correlations of Hormones and Metabolites in High and Low Yielding Cows for Stages of Lactation
TL;DR: Associations of changes with sampling periods in milk yield or body weight with changes in hormones and metabolites, and changes in growth hormone were related positively to changes in nonesterified fatty acids and negatively to insulin and lactic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine control of energy metabolism in the cow: the effect on milk yield and levels of some blood constituents of injecting growth hormone and growth hormone fragments.
TL;DR: It was concluded that this role may be in increasing the supply of energy metabolites for milk synthesis, rather than a direct effect on the activity of the mammary gland, where GH is considered to play an important role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine control of energy metabolism in the cow: diurnal variations in the concentrations of hormones and metabolites in the blood plasma of beef and dairy cows.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of injecting or infusing low doses of bovine growth hormone on milk yield, milk composition and the quantity of hormone in the milk serum of cows
TL;DR: The effects of administering bovine growth hormone (bGH) on milk production in cattle were examined in two experiments as discussed by the authors, where three groups of four Friesian cows were injected daily with one of two doses of bGH (6 ng/kg and 30 ug/kg; 0·82 unit/mg) or with saline (control) throughout three successive 21-day periods in mid-lactation.
