Gene expression of adipokines in placentas of cows from Northeastern Brazil with and without hyperketonemia and their interactions with metabolic biomarkers
The objective was to analyze the mRNA expression of leptin, leptin receptor (ObRb), adiponectin, adiponectin receptor (AdipoR1), and resistin in the placental tissue of cows with and without hyperketonemia, relating it to their metabolic profile. Samples were collected from 135 cows during birth, divided into two group...
