Summary

Liver tissue from eighteen Holstein bull calves from a previous experiment were utilized to characterize and identify hepatic mRNA related to Cu metabolism and homeostasis in cattle, and data indicate that higher than normal hepatic Cu concentration downregulates gene expression of CTR1, ATP7A, ATP 7B, and Cox17, which are involved in bovine liver copperHomeostasis.
