Add to ORKGThe insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are important in several areas of animal production, for example, IGF-1 mediates the growth-promoting effects of growth hormone (GH). GH has effects on a variety of tissues including bone, mammary gland and adipose tissue; GH effects on adipose tissue are direct but its effects on other tissues are thought to be mediated by IGF production. The aim of this study was the investigation of the IGF axis in two areas important to animal performance; lactation and the immune system
