Immunomodulatory factors and infectious agents associated with the hepatic gene expression of the IGF system in nursery pigs
Recent findings suggest there is a complex interaction between the IGF system and the inflammatory immune response. The objective of this study was to determine whether gene expression of growth factors (IGF-1, IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and growth hormone receptors (GHR)) in the liver is assoc...
