Characterization of adiponectin at different physiological states in cattle based on an in-house developed immunological assay for bovine adiponectin
Singh, Shiva Pratap (2014-02-07)Adipose tissue (AT), through secretion of adipokines, plays a central role in regulating metabolism. Adiponectin is one of the most abundant adipokines and is linked with several physiological mechanisms such as insulin ... -
Establishment of an experimental model for dairy cows of divergent peripartal mobilization of body reserves: Profiling circulating steroid hormones and the mRNA abundance of steroid metabolizing enzymes in liver and in adipose tissue
Schuh, Katharina (2021-12-16)The lactation cycle of dairy cows is characterized by physiological, metabolic, and endocrine changes that also affect adipose tissue (AT) function and portion. These changes include lipogenesis during periods of nutrient ... -
