https://www.selleckchem.com/products/sc75741.html Genes associated with inflammation (TNF, IL1B, CXCL8, PTGS2, TGFB1, TLR2, TLR4), nutrient transport (MCT1, MCT4, SLC5A8, GLUT1), and metabolic function (ACAT1, BDH1, MCU, IGFBP3, IGFBP5) were selected and analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR. Butyrate flux was not significantly affected by LPS exposure; however, we detected a tendency for the mucosal-to-serosal butyrate flux to increase linearly with LPS dose. Bidirectional releases of BHB and IL1B were not affected by LPS exposure. Expression of PTGS2, TGFB1, TLR4, and MCU were downregulated following exposure to LPS ex vivo. We detected no effects on the expression of genes associated with nutrient transport. The results of the present study are interpreted to indicate that, although the inflammatory response of the ruminal epithelium was slightly suppressed, exposure to LPS may have altered metabolic function.Multiparous, nonlactating pregnant cows are negatively affected by heat stress, but the effect of heat stress on more thermotolerant pregnant heifers has received less attention. Our objective was to characterize the effect of late-gestation heat abatement on thermoregulatory responses and subsequent milk production of nulliparous Holstein heifers. Pregnant heifers, blocked by body condition score (BCS) and predicted transmitting ability (PTA) for milk, were enrolled in either heat stress (HT, shade of freestall barn; n = 16) or cooling (CL, shade of freestall barn, water soakers, and fans; n = 15) environments during the last 60 d of pregnancy (~8 weeks). Rectal temperature (RT; thermometer), respiration rate (RR; breaths/min), sweating rate (SR; VapoMeter, Delfin Technologies, Kuopio, Finland), and skin temperature (ST; infrared thermometer) were measured thrice weekly from enrollment to calving. Vaginal temperature (VT; i-button intravaginal device) was measured every 10 min for 7 consecutive days at wk -8 HT heifers for all weeks. Notably, ST was red
