Excessive postpartum body condition score loss coincides with skeletal muscle proteolysis in dairy cows: molecular and biochemical evidence

The transition period (− 21 to + 21 days relative to calving) in dairy cows is characterized by profound metabolic adaptations that often result in negative energy balance (NEB) and mobilization of body reserves. This study evaluated the association of postpartum body condition score (BCS) loss on t…
