Proteomics analysis reveals the effect of 1α,25(OH)2VD3-glycosides on development of early testes in piglets

Abstract 1α,25(OH)2VD3 is the most active form of VD3 in animals. It plays an important role in regulating mineral metabolism but also in reproduction. Testes are the main reproductive organs of male mammals. Our research aims to reveal the effect of 1α,25(OH)2VD3-glycosides on development of early...
