Effect of enhanced early life nutrition on the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus transcriptome of bull calf

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated the effect of enhanced dietary intake during the early life period on hypothalamic arcuate nucleus transcriptome in bull calves. Between 2-12 weeks of age bull calves were offered either a high (HI; n=15) or moderate (MOD; n=15) plane of nutrition, with diets designed to evoke growth rates of 1.0 and 0.5 kg/day, respectively. At 12 wk of age, arcuate nucleus tissue samples were harvested from all calves and subsequently subjected to mRNAseq.
