Relationship between Plasma Serine Peptidase Inhibitor and Calcium of Dairy Cows during Transition Period
Abstract:This study investigated relationship between plasma serine peptidase inhibitor (SERPIN) and calcium of dairy cows in transition period. At calving, days 14-7 before calving, and days after calving the dairy cows were chosen and divided into hypocaleaemia group { 〈 2.20 mmol/L, T} and normal group (2.20-3.5 mmol/L, C}, 3 each group. Plasma SERPIN abundance were measured using western blotting. Results showed that abundance of plasma SERPIN was upregulated in plasma of dairy cows with hypocal- caemia. Conclusion obtained that we first confirm that there is a negative association of SERPIN and calci- um in plasma, which implies that calcium may regulate blood coagulation and immune function of dairy cows by SERPIN pathway.
