Variance and covariance components and genetic parameters for fat and protein yield of first-lactation Holstein cows using random regression models

Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2014
Background: the genetic parameters of the lactation curve in dairy cattle can be analyzed as longitudinal data using Random Regression Models (RRM). Objective: to estimate the (co) variance components and genetic parameters for fat (F) and protein (P ...

Milk progesterone as a tool to improve fertility in dairy cows [PDF]

, 2007
Milk progesterone offers an opportunity to objectively study fertility in dairy cows, in contrast to traditional measures of dairy cow fertility, which in general are highly influenced by on-farm management decisions.

Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cell–NK Cell Complexes for Spatially Targeted and Functionally Revitalized Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐15‐engineered stem cell–NK cell complexes, assembled via bioorthogonal chemistry, enable effective lung cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells represent a powerful immunotherapeutic strategy due to their intrinsic cytotoxicity and ability to target tumor cells independently of antigen presentation.

A Biological Approach to Lactation Curve Analysis for Milk Yield

Journal of Dairy Science, 2000
Lactation records of milk yield are commonly analyzed with empirical mathematical models. A family of new models is described based on the known biology of the mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation. The new models fit two logistic curves representing secretory cell differentiation and cell death (apoptosis) throughout lactation.

Targeting UXS1‐Dependent Glucuronate Detoxification Potentiates Metformin's Anti‐Tumor Efficacy in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that metformin promotes glucuronic acid metabolism in lung adenocarcinoma by activating UGDH S476 phosphorylation and enhancing the conversion of UDPG to UDPGA based on metabolomics analysis. Through compound virtual screening, it is found that plantainoside targeting UGDH downstream UXS1 leads to UDPGA toxicity accumulation ...

LACTATION PERFORMANCE AND LACTATION CURVE TRAITS IN GRAZING KATAHDIN SHEEP

Chilean journal of agricultural & animal sciences
The aim of this study was to assess lactation traits, lactation curve shape and curve parameters in Katahdin sheep under a grazing-based feeding system. A total of 27 second-parity Katahdin ewes were evaluated. The animals were kept on a pasture composed of cool-season grasses and legumes.

Modelling fat and protein concentration curves for Irish dairy cows [PDF]

, 2006
peer-reviewedThe objective of this study was to acquire a well-fitting, single-equation model that would represent the fat and protein concentration curves of milk from Irish dairy cows. The dataset consisted of 16,086 records from both spring and autumn
