The impact of breast milk relaxin 2, oxytocin, and insulin‐like peptide 3 on neonatal growth parameters in early life

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This study aims to quantify the levels of relaxin 2 (RLX2), oxytocin (OXT), and insulin‐like peptide 3 (INSL3) in colostrum (postpartum days 1–5, Visit 1) and mature breast milk (postpartum days 21–35, Visit 2), and to evaluate their associations with neonatal growth outcomes.

A retrospective cohort study investigating the association of environment, milk performance and udder health with the yield and solid content of first-milking colostrum in Holstein dairy cows

BMC Veterinary Research
Background The administration of high-quality colostrum is widely recognized as crucial for the health and survival of neonatal calves, yet identifying factors influencing colostrum yield and solid content has remained a challenge.

Exploring the impacts of colostrum on systemic immune development in dairy calves

Journal of Dairy Science
: Colostrum provides essential immune components, but its role in shaping neonatal immune development is not fully understood. Twenty-four Holstein calves were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatments: fresh colostrum (n = 8), frozen colostrum (n = 8), or ...

Lactoperoxidase from human colostrum [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1989
The present study has confirmed that human colostrum contains a lactoperoxidase (EC 1.11.1.7) [Langbakk & Flatmark (1984) FEBS Lett. 174, 300-303], which represents about 0.004% of the total protein in crude colostrum. An apparent 32-fold purification of the enzyme was obtained by a multistep procedure, as modified from that of the bovine enzyme ...

Comparative analysis of microRNAs in bovine colostrum and neonatal calf blood

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non‐coding RNAs that participate in a wide range of biological processes. MiRNAs are present in high concentrations in colostrum, and these may be potentially transferred to newborn calves being fed colostrum.

Effect of Three Colostrum Diets on Passive Transfer of Immunity and Preweaning Health in Calves on a California Dairy following Colostrum Management Training

Veterinary Medicine International, 2014
Following colostrum management training, a randomized field trial was conducted on a California dairy to determine the effect of supplementing pooled colostrum with either colostrum-derived replacer (CDR) or second-milking colostrum (transition milk) on ...

Effect of feeding heat-treated and unheated colostrum on immunoglobulin G absorption, health and performance of neonatal Holstein dairy calves

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2019
First colostrum is an important source of nutrients and immune factors which are necessary for calves in the first weeks of life. Despite these benefits, colostrum can also represent one of the earliest potential exposures of dairy calves to infectious ...

Effect of three storage methods on physical and chemical properties of colostrum from Bos indicus cows

Ciência Rural, 2022
: Maternal colostrum provides the neonate with immunoglobulins, essential for passive immunity. However, storage and handling of colostrum can alter its physical and nutritional characteristics.
