Prenatal and pre-weaning growth and nutrition of cattle: long-term consequences for beef production

open access: yesAnimal, 2007
Severe, chronic growth retardation of cattle early in life reduces growth potential, resulting in smaller animals at any given age. Capacity for long-term compensatory growth diminishes as the age of onset of nutritional restriction resulting in ...

Effect of ciglitazone on adipogenic transdifferentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2021
Ciglitazone is a member of the thiazolidinedione family, and specifically binds to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ), thereby promoting adipocyte differentiation.

Effect of palmitoleic acid on the differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2021
We hypothesized that the unsaturated fatty acid palmitoleic acid (POA) could promote the expression of adipogenic/lipogenic genes in bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells (BSCs). The BSCs were cultured in a growth

Boran calves reared under partial milk offtake can undergo compensatory growth post-weaning and optimize beef-milk productivity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Animal Research
This study determined the long-term effect of restricted suckling on the post-weaning performance of Boran cattle. Thirty-two nursing cows and their calves arranged in a 4 X 2 factorial experiment were grazed in the tropical ecological zone IV range. The
