The objectives of the present study were to identify key genes and biological pathways
associated with thermal stress in Chinese Holstein dairy cattle. Hence, we constructed a cell …

Heat stress in dairy cattle leads to reduction in feed intake and milk production as well as the
induction of many physiological stress responses. The genes implicated in the response to …

Environmental heat stress in dairy cattle leads to poor health, reduced milk production and
decreased reproductive efficiency. Multiple genes interact and coordinate the response to …

Heat stress affects the physiology and production performance of Chinese Holstein dairy
cows. As such, the selection of heat tolerance in cows and elucidating its underlying …

This study aimed to investigate the genes and pathways that respond to heat stress in
Holstein bull calves exposed to severe ranges of temperature and humidity. A total of ten …

Livestock is an important food resource for the inhabitants of cold regions, such as northern
Asia and alpine regions, where agriculture is limited. In these regions, cold stress largely …

Heat stress (HS) seriously affects animal performance. In view of global warming, it is
essential to understand the regulatory mechanisms by which animals adapt to heat stress. In …

Goats are considered more tolerant to heat stress compared to dairy cows because of their
greater sweating rate and lower body weight: surface ratio, allowing greater heat dissipation …

Abstract Background Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play important roles in the responses to
different environmental stresses. In this study, the genomic and proteomic characteristics of …

High temperature is a major stress that negatively affects welfare, health, and productivity of
dairy animals. Heat-stressed animals are more prone to disease, suggesting that their …
