Lipolysis increases postpartum and reduces adipose mass and adipocyte size. Blood and adipose tissue samples were collected from Holstein cows (n = 12) at 11 ± 3.6 d before calving date (PreP) and at 6 ± 1d (PP1) and 13 ± 1.4d (PP2) after parturition. a Body weight; b Body condition score (BCS); c Frequency of adipocyte sizes in subcutaneous adipose tissues; d Circulating free fatty acids (NEFA); e circulating beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB); f Blood glucose and g Insulin. Data are means ± SEM or * median ± SEM. Significant differences are indicated by * and letters a, b, c (P < 0.05)
