Features of glucose-insulin homeostasis at different stages of gestation in cows.

An increase in morbidity during times of relatively high functional load on the body such as during pregnancy, confirms the role of metabolic overload in the occurrence of metabolic failures. It is better to take preventive measures such as adjusting metabolic regulation mechanisms in light of the ideal dietary composition. However, this direction is constrained by the lack of information about neurohumoral regulation. The goal of the present study was to learn more about the dynamics of changes in insulin and glucose levels in pregnant cow's blood. Research on the levels of glucose and insulin in lactating cows demonstrated that ruminants had distinct characteristics in the metabolism of carbohydrates, most notably a lessened reliance of blood glucose on insulin levels. A rise in blood glucose and insulin levels was observed as the gestational stage increased during the third trimester of pregnancy. The intensity of this insulin tolerance was contingent upon the level of productivity and glucose levels during the preceding stages of gestation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
