ABSTRACT

Leptin is thought to play a critical role in regulating energy metabolism throughout mammalian life. In growing dairy cattle, plasma leptin has been proposed as a partial mediator of the effects of nutrition on reproductive and mammary development. However, the developmental stage at which the plane of nutrition increases plasma leptin has not been well defined. Further, it is unknown whether the onset of puberty is affected by plasma leptin concentration in dairy cattle. To investigate these questions, two studies were performed. In the first study, neonatal calves were fed a milk ...
