Relationship between the blood thyroid hormones and lipid profile in Moghani sheep; influence of age and sex

Relationship between plasma thyroid hormones and some biochemical parameters in Iranian Sarabi calves

“…The level of T 4 was lower than the values reported in calves (Irmak et al 2004) and sheep (Nazifi et al 2008) and higher than values reported in sheep (Souza et al 2002;Altiner 2006) andcows (Rasooli et al 2004). According to our data from Sarabi calves, the level of plasma T 3 was higher than values previously reported in sheep (Souza et al 2002) and lower than previous values reported by Eshratkhah et al (2010a) in lambs and by Altiner (2006) and Nazifi et al (2008) in sheep. Levels of fT 4 and fT 3 showed little difference from values previously reported in sheep (Eshratkhah et al 2010a), but the concentration of fT 3 is lower and fT 4 is higher than the other values reported in sheep (Nazifi et al 2007(Nazifi et al , 2008.…”

“…In this study, the level of plasma glucose in cows was higher than the values reported by Mojabi (2000), Kabir and Pazdezh (2002), Meyer and Harvey (2004), Rasooli et al (2004), and Saco et al (2008) but was consistent with previous values reported in cows (Duncan et al 2003) and horses (Duncan et al 2003;Meyer and Harvey 2004). The level of plasma triglyceride was higher than the previously reported values in cows (Mojabi 2000; Meyer and Harvey 2004;Saco et al 2008), sheep (Eshratkhah et al 2010a), and goats (Nazifi et al 2002), but its level was a little different from the values reported in sheep (Eshratkhah et al 2010c), calves (Irmak et al 2004), and horses (Duncan et al 2003). In this study, the level of cholesterol was lower than values reported in horses (Nazifi et al 2002) but higher than values reported in sheep (Eshratkhah et al 2010a), goats (Nazifi et al 2002), and cows (Rasooli et al 2004;Saco et al 2008).…”

However, our results are consistent with the values reported in Turkish calves (Irmak et al 2004) and other breeds of Iranian cows (Mojabi 2000).…”

“…Additionally, these hormones favor lipolysis in adipose tissue resulting in a decrease in plasma cholesterol concentration; they may also have an indirect effect on lipogenesis (Gueorguieva and Gueorguiev 1989;Rao 2002;Dhanotiya 2004;Chatterjea and Shinde 2005). Studies on plasma glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol, and protein profile in ruminants have shown that there are differences between species and even within species (Coles 1986;Duncan and Prasse 1986;Mojabi 2000;Meyer and Harvey 2004;Eshratkhah et al 2008Eshratkhah et al , 2010a. Sarabi cows are the pure forms of the original types of native cow which was reared in the Eastern Azarbaijan province, northeastern Iran.…”

Ankara keçisi tekelerinde serum tiroid hormon ve kolesterol düzeyleri ilişkisi

“…Serum kolesterol ve tiroid hormon düzeyleri arasındaki bu negatif ilişki insanda (13), sığırda (5) ve köpekte (8) bildirilmiştir. Buna karşın devede (14) ve keçide (9) T3, T4 ve kolesterol arasında önemli bir ilişki olmadığı; İran'ın Moghani koyunlarında ise pozitif bir ilişki olduğu rapor edilmiştir (4).…”
