Oxidative stress and protein catabolism following dexamethasone and isoflupredone administration in Holstein calves
Background: Glucocorticoids have several benefits in large animal medicine but apart from their benefits, there are several disadvantages attributed to the use of these drugs. Among the disadvantages, disturbance in protein metabolism is one of the side effects of glucocorticoids which has been investigated in human and laboratory animals. OBJECTIVES: There are no information regarding the effe...
متن کاملComplex vertebral malformation in holstein calves.
A recently observed lethal congenital defect of purebred Holstein calves is reported. Eighteen genetically related calves were necropsied. One calf had been aborted on gestation day 159, and the others were delivered between day 250 and day 285. Birth weights were reduced. The defect was characterized by shortening of the cervical and thoracic parts of the vertebral column due to multiple hemiv...
متن کاملDemodicosis in two Holstein young calves
Demodicosis in cattle is caused by a microscopic mite, Demodex bovis. The parasites live sometimes in large numbers in the hair follicles and associated skin glands. The disease is well described and quite common in tropical zones, but rare and most likely underestimated in temperate regions, especially in Europe (Fisher, 1973; Matthes, 1994). Demodectic mange in cattle is known to be usually a...
متن کاملIntermittent flow in yield-stress fluids slows down chaotic mixing.
We present experimental results of chaotic mixing of Newtonian fluids and yield-stress fluids using a rod-stirring protocol with a rotating vessel. We show how the mixing of yield-stress fluids by chaotic advection is reduced compared to the mixing of Newtonian fluids and explain our results, bringing to light the relevant mechanisms: the presence of fluid that only flows intermittently, a phen...
متن کاملRepeated intermittent stress exacerbates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Chronic stress in humans has been correlated with increased risk for ischemic heart disease. Thus experiments were conducted to determine if repeated intermittent restraint stress increased infarct size in a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to no stress (control) or to daily restraint stress for 1-1.5 h for 8-14 days (stress protocol A...
