Leptin gene in rabbit: cloning and expression in mammary epithelial cells during pregnancy and lactation.
Leptin is known as a cytokine mostly produced by fat cells and implicated in regulation of energy metabolism and food intake but has also been shown to be involved in many physiological mechanisms such as tissue metabolism and cell differentiation and proliferation. In particular, leptin influences the development of mammary gland. Although leptin expression in mammary gland has been studied in...
متن کاملFatty acid biosynthesis in rabbit mammary gland during pregnancy and early lactation.
The pattern of fatty acids synthesized by mammary-gland explants from rabbits during pregnancy and early lactation has been studied. From day 12 to day 18 of pregnancy, long-chain (C(14:0)-C(18:1)) fatty acids were the major products. From day 18 to day 21 of pregnancy there was an increase of up to 12-fold in the rate of fatty acid synthesis per unit wet weight of tissue that was almost exclus...
متن کاملGrowth and acyltransferase activity of rabbit mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation.
A bimodal change in yield and microsomal protein content of rabbit mammary gland was observed with the progress of pregnancy and lactation. The initial stimulus took place on day 22 of pregnancy and the second during early lactation. Palmitoyl-CoA:monopalmitoyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate palmitoyltransferase activity was monitored concurrently. This enzyme in rabbit mammary microsomes is composed ...
متن کاملProgesterone and the metabolic control of the lactose biosynthetic pathway during lactogenesis in the rat.
1. Lactogenesis was initiated in pregnant rats by ovariectomy, thereby causing progesterone withdrawal, after which the mammary tissue was analysed for contents of enzymes and metabolites concerned with the biosynthesis of lactose. 2. Lactose synthesis increased about 126-fold with little or no accompanying change in the contents of most metabolic intermediates or in the adenine nucleotide ener...
متن کاملAdaptations in lipid metabolism of bovine adipose tissue in lactogenesis and lactation.
The timing and magnitude of metabolic adaptations in adipose tissue during lactogenesis and lactation were determined in first lactation bovines. In vitro rates of lipogenesis and palmitate esterification were measured to estimate in vivo synthesis. Lipolysis was measured in the basal state and as maximally stimulated by norepinephrine or epinephrine to estimate physiological adaptations as wel...
