Association between Chages in Plasma Calcium Concentration and Plasma Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase Activity in Periparturient Cows.

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Eight periparturient Holstein Friesian cows were examined for plasma tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity to assess the degree of bone metabolic activity and to evaluate the association between the change in calcium (Ca) concentration and bone metabolism during the periparturient period. Milk fever occurred in 1 of 8 cows just after parturition. Plasma TRAP activities did not markedly change in 5 of 8 cows during the experimental period. The changing rate of Ca between preparturition a… Show more

“…The study reported here appears to be the first involving a large number of dairy cattle (n = 104) that permitted a more complete characterization of the change in plasma [Ca] during the 24-h period before and after parturition. It should be noted that our re-sults were consistent with those reported in 5 studies involving small numbers of dairy cows that identified a prepartum decrease in plasma [Ca] below 2.15 mmol/L (Horst et al, 1978;Horst and Jorgensen, 1982;Goff et al, 1989;Sato et al, 2003;Kimura et al, 2006). However, the dairy cows used in those studies were not fed an acidogenic diet in the late dry period and most showed clinical signs of hypocalcemia, and the specific timing of the decrease in plasma [Ca] relative to parturition was not well characterized.…”

“…The calcium homeostasis of parturient cows depends on intestinal calcium absorption, and the bone resorption is suppressed or delayed for a week or more [27,28]. Physiological changes in plasma TRAP5b as well as bone markers such as HYP and BALP around parturition are necessary to examine in further studies, although there were several reports dealing with the spectrophotometric method for measuring plasma TRAP5b in cows [11,32,33].…”

“…Similarly, because skeletal disease (e.g., bone fracture, osteoarthritis, and osteomalacia) is often encountered in bovine practice, the assessment of bone markers may be helpful for determining diagnosis and prognosis. However, knowledge of bone markers is still limited to adult dairy cows during pregnancy and lactation [16,17,19,[31][32][33], cows with experimental hypocalcaemia [14], and cows fed a diet to prevent milk fever [7,11,18,24].…”
