Association between liver failure and hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity in dairy cows with follicular cysts
Uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) liver activity was measured using estradiol-17β as a substrate in dairy cows with follicular cysts. The activity was significantly lower than that in dairy cows with normal estrous cycles (P<0.01). Liver disorders, such as fatty liver and hepatitis, were observed in half cows with follicular cysts, and liver UGT activity was lower than that in ...
متن کاملFollicular cysts in dairy cows
Follicular cysts are the most critical reproductive disorder in dairy cows and disturb normal ovarian cycle, resulting in the prolonged interval from calving to conception. Therefore, this condition causes significant economic losses to the dairy industry. Two direct causal factors of cyst are suggested in this review; the disorder of ovulation and the delay of regression. The disorder of ovula...
متن کاملQuantification of Hepatic UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1A splice variant expression and correlation of UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 variant expression with glucuronidation activity.
The UDP glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A gene cluster encodes nine UGT1A family members via splicing of individual first exons to common exons 2 through 5. Each of these nine UGT1As can also undergo alternative splicing at their 3' ends by using an alternate exon 5, resulting in 27 different UGT1A mRNA species with each UGT1A gene encoding three different combinations of 5A and 5B UGT1A exons. ...
متن کاملA comparison of adrenal gland function in lactating dairy cows with or without ovarian follicular cysts.
Two experiments were conducted to determine if adrenal secretion of steroids differed between cows that formed ovarian follicular cysts and normal cycling cows. In experiment 1, lactating Jersey and Holstein cows were diagnosed as having ovarian follicular cysts (follicle diameter >or=20 mm) by rectal palpation. Following diagnosis, ovaries were examined by transrectal ultrasonography three tim...
متن کاملAssociation between the lactation curve shape and calving interval in Holstein dairy cows of Iran
This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between early lactation curve parameters andcalving interval in Holstein cows of Iran. In order to describe the lactation curve, the incomplete gammafunction was fitted to 5,754,428 test-day milk records corresponding to 766,108 lactations on 315,634 cowsin 2,448 herds. Cows with higher milk yield during early lactation had shorter calv...
