Prolactin and Triiodothyronine Modulate Seasonal Variation in Brown Adipose Tissue in Djungarian Hamsters

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seasonal photoperiodic cycles regulate energy rheostasis in many animals. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and the liver are key metabolic organs that show remarkable plasticity in response to photoperiodic conditions. Prolactin (PRL) and thyroid hormones are endocrine signals that transmit neural‐derived photoperiodic time measurement encoding to ...

Impact of ergot alkaloid and steroidal implant on whole-body protein turnover and expression of mTOR pathway proteins in muscle of cattle

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionHolstein steers (n = 32) were used to determine if the ergot analog, bromocriptine decreases muscle protein synthesis through inhibitory action on the mTOR pathway via a direct effect on signal proteins, and if these negative effects can be ...
