Impacts of Metabolism and Nutrition During the Transition Period on Fertility of Dairy Cows
In early postpartum, high-producing dairy cows undergo a period of extensive tissue catabolism because of negative nutrient balance. Metabolic unbalances can lead to diseases, which are known to depress fertility in dairy cows. Negative nutrient balance has been associated with compromised immune and reproductive functions in dairy cows, and a compromised immune system leads to greater risk of ...
متن کاملDNA damage in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and neutrophils of dairy cows during the transition period
This study was designed to investigate the apoptotic process in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocytes (PMN) in dairy cattle during the transition period. Blood samples were collected from 4 dairy cattle at 3 weeks before the expected parturition (wk -3), parturition (wk 0) and 3 weeks after parturition (wk +3). The DNA damage of PBMC and PMN was e...
متن کاملBlood plasma lipidome profile of dairy cows during the transition period
BACKGROUND The transition period of dairy cows, around parturition and the onset of lactation, involves endocrine and metabolic changes to compensate for an increased energy requirement aggravated by reduced feed intake. Transition cows adjust to the resulting negative energy balance with the mobilization of lipids from the adipose tissues yielding increased blood levels of non-esterified fatty...
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
Relationships between rumination time, metabolic conditions, and health status in dairy cows during the transition period.
The main objective of this experiment was to monitor the rumination pattern during the transition period in primiparous (PR) and pluriparous (PL) dairy cows and to investigate its relationships with metabolic conditions, milk yield, and health status. The study was carried out in an experimental free-stall barn and involved 32 Italian Friesian cows (9 PR and 23 PL) during the transition phase. ...
