The effects of milking frequency on insulin-like growth factor I signaling within the mammary gland of dairy cows (2015)
Journal Article
Margerison, J., Murney, R., Stelwagen, K., Wheeler, T., & Singh, K. (2015). The effects of milking frequency on insulin-like growth factor I signaling within the mammary gland of dairy cows. Journal of Dairy Science, 98(8), 5422-5428. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2015-9425

In dairy cows, short-term changes in milking frequency (MF) in early lactation have been shown to produce both an immediate and a long-term effect on milk yield. The effect of MF on milk yield is controlled locally within mammary glands and could be...

© 2015 American Dairy Science Association. Prolactin (PRL) is important in the regulation of milk synthesis in mammary epithelial cells (MEC). In cattle, circulating levels of PRL are not limiting, suggesting the possible involvement of other factors...
