Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleic acid, metabolic and histological changes in gilt mammary tissue during pregnancy and lactogenesis.
TL;DR: Results indicate that mammogenesis is complete by d 90, after which lactogenesis is initiated in a two-stage process, and preferential metabolism of acetate vs glucose near parturition suggests coordination of metabolism between the mammary gland and other maternal tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of accelerated growth rates and estrogen implants in prepubertal Holstein heifers on estimates of mammary development and subsequent reproduction and milk production
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of accelerating growth rates and imposing estrogen implants in prepubertal heifers on mammary development and subsequent reproduction and milk production were investigated using randomized complete block design in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine regulation of fetal and postnatal meat animal growth.
Terry D. Etherton,R.S. Kensinger +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence is discussed which indicates that nutrient partitioning between muscle and adipose tissue can be altered by growth hormone administration in meat animals and that manipulation of systemic hormone concentrations and tissue sensitivity to hormones involved in growth and differentiation may result in means to manipulate fetal and postnatal growth and development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrone and 17β-estradiol concentrations in pasteurized-homogenized milk and commercial dairy products
TL;DR: Compared with information cited in the literature, concentrations of E(1) and E(2) in bovine milk are small relative to endogenous production rates of E-1 and E-2 in humans.
