Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) regulate cell proliferation and cell apoptosis in gastrointestinal tissue in vitro and in vivo. We have tested the hypothesis that a medium-concentrate intake induces mRNA abundance alterations of genes involved in cell proliferation and cell apoptosis in the rumen epithelium of goats, and that these changes in mRNA abundance are related to ruminal SCFA concentration and ruminal pH. Goats (n = 16) were randomly...
