GnRH in the infundibular stalk-median eminence is related to percentage body fat in carcasses of beef cows.

Abstract:

:Mature Hereford cows (n = 28) were used to determine the effect of percentage body fat on secretion of LH and content of GnRH in the infundibular stalk-median eminence (ISME). Cows were fed to maintain, lose, or gain weight to achieve body condition scores (BCS; 1 = emaciated; 9 = obese) of 3 to 7. Then cows were fed to maintain weight and body condition. Before slaughter, estrus was synchronized using two injections of prostaglandin F2 alpha(PGF) 11 d apart. Five d after the second PGF injection, cows were given 100 micrograms of GnRH (im) and serum samples were obtained. LH was quantified using RIA. The anterior pituitary and ISME were obtained within 45 min of death. Anterior pituitary weight and LH concentration, total GnRH in the ISME, total carcass fat, and percentage carcass fat were determined. BCS of cows at the time of slaughter influenced percentage carcass fat (P less than .001), total GnRH in the ISME (P less than .02), and maximum LH after GnRH treatment (P less than .09), but did not influence pituitary weight or concentration of LH in the pituitary. Content of GnRH in the ISME averaged 76 +/- 12, 32 +/- 14, 27 +/- 13, and 24 +/- 13 ng for cows with BCS of 3, 5, 6, and 7, respectively. BCS was correlated (P less than .001) with percentage carcass fat (r = .94) and total fat in the carcass (r = .92). Total GnRH in the ISME was negatively correlated (P less than .005) with BCS (r = -.54), percentage carcass fat (r = -.55), and total carcass fat (r = -.49).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
