Plasma Levels of Anabolic Hormones in Suckling Lambs are Affected by Late Gestational Nutrition

In this study, the effects of late gestational undernutrition (LGU) on plasma concentration of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I), leptin, insulin and glucose in subsequent sucking lambs was investigated. Ten twin-bearing ewes were fed either restrictedly (Restricted) or adequately (Control) during the last six weeks of gestation and were fed ad libitum after parturition. Blood samples were t...

The effect of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2(FGF-2) and retinoic acid on differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into neural cells

Introduction: Embryonic Stem (ES) cells as pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of blastula can differentiate to neural cells in vitro and this property is valuable in studies of neurogenesis and in the generation of donor cells for transplantation. In this regard, the propose of this research, was the study of the role of two important factors in the development of neural syst...

The Effects of Different Levels of Prebiotic and Peptide Supplementations on Growth Performance, Apparent Digestibility Nutrients and Fecal Score in Suckling Zell Lambs

This study investigated the effects of different levels of prebiotic and peptide supplementations on growth performance, apparent digestibility of nutrients and fecal score in suckling Zell lambs. A completely randomized experiment was designed with a factorial arrangement of 3×2 containing 36 male suckling Zell lambs at the age of 10 days and with a mean weight of 4.4±0.33 kg for 70 days. The ...

Growth Performance of Blackhead Pleven Lambs during the Suckling Period

The aim of the present study was to analyze the live weight, body length, and chest perimeter in Blackhead Pleven lambs at an early age with a view to their future use as prognostic indicators of growth performance. The study was conducted with 46 lambs. It found out that at birth and weaning the singletons had higher live weight and higher average daily weight gain in comparison with the twins (P

Increased litter size and suckling intensity inhibit KiSS-1 mRNA expression in rat arcuate nucleus

Objective(s): The effect of litter size and suckling intensity on the expression of KiSS-1 mRNA in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) of rats were evaluated. Materials and Methods: Thirty two pregnant and four non-lactating ovariectomized (as control group) rats were used in this experiment. Lactating rats were allotted to eight equal groups. In three groups, litter size was adjusted to 5, 10, or 15 pup...
