Somatotropina bovina recombinante (rBST) nos aspectos hematológicos e metabólitos do sangue de novilhas (½ Nelore x ½ Red Angus) em confinamento

Abstract: RESUMO -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da somatotropina bovina recombinante (rBST -análogo do BST, obtido comercialmente pela técnica do DNA recombinante), sobre os aspectos hematológicos (hematócrito, eritrócitos, hemoglobina, leucócitos, neutrófilos, eosinófilos, linfócitos e monócitos) e metabólitos (glicose, insulina, IGF-I, triglicérides, colesterol total e uréia) do sangue de novilhas confinadas. Foram utilizadas 24 novilhas mestiças (½ Nelore x ½ Red Angus), com aproximadamente 18 meses … Show more

“…Lambs from mothers that received rBST showed the best weights at weaning due to the higher milk production of their mothers (Figure 2). It should be noted that lamb weights among the other treatments were greater than those found by Pérez Hernández et al (2009) for hair lambs. Therefore, the application of rBST to ewes improves lamb weight at weaning as milk production increases, resulting in a greater ewe body weight loss (Figure 1).…”

“…Ewes in T1 and T2 maintained the most stable weights over time, while those in T3 and T4 had a large drop in body weight after rBST applications (Figure 1). This hormone promotes hepatic gluconeogenesis and reduces insulin activity to inhibit insulin; therefore, additional glucose is used by the mammary gland as a precursor for lactose, which explains the increase in production (Prado et al, 2003;Lucy, 2008), resulting in lamb weight gain (Figure 2). In the beginning of the study, ewes in T3 also had a lower birth weight than in the other treatments.…”

“…La duración de la lactancia fue excepcionalmente prolongada en todos los grupos de vacas, esto indica que mientras se mantenga el suministro de bST y la ordeña tres veces por día, es posible extender la lactancia significativamente (Knight, 1997). Lo anterior, ocurre porque al utilizar bSTr se aumenta la gluconeogénesis hepática y la disminución en la actividad de la insulina para inhibirla (Prado et al, 2003); la glucosa adicional es usada por la glándula mamaria como precursor de lactosa explicando el aumento en producción atribuido a la hormona. En el tejido adiposo disminuye la lipogénesis basal si se está en balance energético positivo e incrementa la lipólisis basal en balance energético negativo (Bauman, 1992).…”

“…O hormônio em geral atua lentamente, passando-se de 1 a 2 horas a vários dias antes de se observarem efeitos biológicos. Essa ação lenta, somada a seu efeito estimulante sobre a síntese de RNA, sugere que parte da atividade do hormônio envolva a síntese de proteínas ou enzimas (Prado et al 2003).…”
