During starvation, fasting, or a diet containing little digestible carbohydrates, the circulating
insulin levels are decreased. This promotes lipolysis, and the breakdown of fat becomes the …

Over the past few decades, complementary and alternative treatments have become
increasingly popular worldwide. The purported therapeutic characteristics of natural …

The hepatic growth hormone (GH)–insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I axis is essential for
regulating intrahepatic lipid metabolism. Ketotic cows are characterized by high blood …

Abstract Beta-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA), as one of the main metabolic ketones in the
rumen epithelium, plays critical roles in cellular growth and metabolism. The ketogenic …

Ketosis is an important metabolic disease that can negatively affect the production efficiency
of dairy cows. Earlier studies have revealed metabolic and inflammatory alterations in the …

Background/Aims: Acetic acid (AcOH), a short-chain fatty acid, is reported to have some
beneficial effects on metabolism. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the …

Severe negative energy balance around parturition is an important contributor to ketosis, a
metabolic disorder that occurs most frequently in the peripartal period. Autophagy and …

High concentrations of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs) and β‐hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA)
induce lipid peroxidation, resulting in liver damage. Choline and methionine (Met) can …

During early lactation, dairy cows experience a severe metabolic load often resulting in the
development of various diseases. The inevitable deficiency in nutrients and energy at the …

Tea tree oil (TTO) plays an important role in lipid metabolism, alleviating the inflammatory
responses. Fatty liver is associated with lipid accumulation in hepatocytes, leading to …
