ABSTRACT
Transgenic pigs failed to accord milk yield curve to lactate rhFIX-a vitamin K (VK) dependent protein even fed with VK enriched to 8 times higher than nutritional requirement. A further higher VK supplementation may be required. Homozygous transgenic sows (n = 4, 200 kg) at their 3rd nursing were divided into control and treatment groups and respectively received VK enriched and further menadione (soluble VK) supplemented diet (220 mg/kg VK enriched diet) for 33 days. At next lactation, control sows than received treatment and previous treated were fed on control diet. Results revealed that menadione treatment increased milk bioactivity of rhFIX from the 7th day of 73 to the 21st day of 153 IU/mL; it gradually decreased to 96 IU/mL on 35th day of lactation. Under control feeding, bioactivity remained relatively unchanged. However, milk rhFIX concentration and ratio of activated rhFIX responded little to the treatment. The menadione-induced bioactivity curve agrees with the known lactation pattern of sow means rhFIX secretion is still galactopoietic but requires high VK intake to show. The ineffectual VK spend on lactational carboxylation might be common in other mammary VK dependent expression system but can be effectively overcome by a high supplementation of menadione with a 5-folds improvement in quality.
