Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleChanges in the Rumen Papillae During the Periparturient Transition in Holstein Dairy Cows are Accompanied by Changes in Abundance of Proteins Involved in Intracellular pH Regulation, But not SCFA TransportAnne Hermen Laarman, Adam Kleinberg, Michael Alexander Steele et al.The objective of this study was to examine changes in SCFA transport capacity in the rumen epithelium during the parturition transition period. Twelve pregnant, cannulated primiparous and multiparous cows were fed a standard Total Mixed Ration (TMR) for the duration of the dry period; after calving, all cows were switched to an early lactation TMR. Rumen pH, fluid and biopsies … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2015 · 7,546 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleTRANSCRIPTOMIC CHANGES IN RUMINAL TISSUE INDUCED BY THE PERIPARTURIENT TRANSITION IN DAIRY COWSLouis Dionissopoulos, Ousama AlZahal, Michael Alexander Steele et al.To understand how the capacity for fat metabolism (uptake, synthesis, modification) changes in rumen epithelia immediately before and after onset of lactation in dairy cows, rumen fluid Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) concentrations and mRNA expression profiles of rumen epithelia was determined in twelve Holstein dairy cows at three weeks prior to calving (wk -3, n = 12), one week … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2014 · 7,501 accessesView PDF Cite
