The effect of early colonized gut microbiota on the growth performance of suckling lambs

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The early colonized gut microbiota during the newborn period has been reported to play important roles in the health and immunity of animals; however, whether they can affect the growth performance of suckling lambs is still unclear.

Animal performance and stress at weaning when dairy cows suckle their calves for short versus long daily durations

open access: yesanimal, 2022
Calves in most dairy farms are separated from their dams either immediately or within a few hours after birth, prompting increasing concern of the society for reasons of animal welfare. The aim of this study was to identify systems to maintain cow-calf contact (CCC) that balance the benefits for calf growth and health against the negative impacts on ...

Suckling a protein-restricted rat dam leads to diminished albuminuria in her male offspring in adult life: a longitudinal study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2006
Background Previous studies have shown that in male rats, exposure to maternal protein restriction either in utero or whilst suckling can have profound effects on both longevity and kidney telomere lengths. This study monitored albuminuria longitudinally

Electron Microscopy of the Suckling Mouse Cataract Agent: a Noncultivable Animal Pathogen Possibly Related to Mycoplasma [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1974
The suckling mouse cataract agent (SMCA) is a filtrable (<220 nm), noncultivable agent isolated from ticks in Georgia in 1961. It grows to high titer in the eyes and brains of intracerebrally inoculated mice in which it induces cataract, uveitis, and chronic brain infection.

Maternal Epidermal Growth Factor Promotes Neonatal Claudin-2 Dependent Increases in Small Intestinal Calcium Permeability

open access: yesFunction, 2023
A higher concentration of calcium in breast milk than blood favors paracellular calcium absorption enabling growth during postnatal development. We aimed to determine whether suckling animals have greater intestinal calcium permeability to maximize ...

Phytogenic as feed additive for suckling dairy calves’ has a beneficial effect on animal health and performance [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the use phytogenic as feed additive of Holstein calves could exert beneficial effects on animal health and performance. Thirty newborn calves were randomly divided into two groups (control and treated), and the treated consisted of 10 g of the phytogenic product diluted in milk once a day for 30 ...

The Early Life Microbiota Is Not a Major Factor Underlying the Susceptibility to Postweaning Diarrhea in Piglets

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Postweaning diarrhea (PWD) in piglets impair welfare, induce economic losses and lead to overuse of antibiotics. The early life gut microbiota was proposed to contribute to the susceptibility to PWD.

Studies on fat digestion, absorption, and transport in the suckling rat. IV. In vivo rates of triacylglycerol secretion by intestine and liver.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
The rate of triacylglycerol entry into plasma in 14- to 15-day-old suckling rats was measured using the Triton WR1339 method. When the pups were left with the mother and allowed to nurse continually, the rate was 31.8 +/- 2.3 mumol/hr per rat.

Effect of Endotoxemia in Suckling Rats on Pancreatic Integrity and Exocrine Function in Adults: A Review Report

open access: yesGastroenterology Research and Practice, 2018
Background. Endotoxin (LPS), the component of Gram-negative bacteria, is responsible for sepsis and neonatal mortality, but low concentrations of LPS produced tissue protection in experimental studies.
