TLDR
While not definitively established, roles for placental lactogen and prolactin are attractive possibilities in homeorhetic regulation of maternal tissues to support pregnancy and the initiation of lactaion, respectively.

Reproductive loss in high-producing dairy cattle: where will it end?

TL;DR: Critical areas for new research include control of the estrous cycle, metabolic effects of lactation on reproduction, mechanisms linking disease to reproduction, and early embryonic mortality.

Regulation of organic nutrient metabolism during transition from late pregnancy to early lactation

TL;DR: Conceptus energy and nitrogen demands in late pregnancy are mostly met by placental uptake of maternal glucose and amino acids, but adipose lipolytic responsiveness and sensitivity to adrenergic agents are increased postpartum beyond their levels during late pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Board-invited review: intrauterine growth retardation: implications for the animal sciences.

TL;DR: There is growing evidence that maternal nutritional status can alter the epigenetic state (stable alterations of gene expression through DNA methylation and histone modifications) of the fetal genome, which may provide a molecular mechanism for the role of maternal nutrition on fetal programming and genomic imprinting.

Invited review: Body condition score and its association with dairy cow productivity, health, and welfare

TL;DR: There is relative consistency in the associations among calving and nadir BCS, and BCS change on milk production, postpartum anestrous, the likelihood of a successful pregnancy and days open, therisk of uterine infection, and the risk of metabolic disorders.

The Composition of Bovine Milk Lipids: January 1995 to December 2000

TL;DR: Improved gas-liquid and high performance liquid chromatography were used and data on the trans and cis isomers of fatty acid and of conjugated linoleic acids are given, and the analyses are described.

The energy metabolism of ruminants.

K. L. Blaxter
TL;DR: The energy metabolism of ruminants is studied in detail in the context of animal husbandry and its role in human health.

Metabolism and mechanism of action of vitamin D.

TL;DR: Evidence has been presented for the existence of a receptor protein in intestinal mucosa that binds specifically I alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin in D3 and that may function in the nucleus to initiate transcription of genomes that code for proteins involved in the transport phenomenon.

Studies of insulin, growth hormone and prolactin binding: tissue distribution, species variation and characterization.

TL;DR: The specific binding of 125I-labeled insulin, hGH and oPRL was surveyed in crude membrane preparations of various tissues of the monkey, rat, guinea pig, rabbit, sheep, pigeon, and frog, finding no relation between phylogenetic proximity to man and the level of specific binding.
