Abstract: To study the effects of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)VD3] at different doses on blood level, antioxidant capacity and immune function of pre-weaning calves,18 healthy Holstein calves were randomly assigned to 3 groups with 6 calves in each group for 56 days. They were divided into control group [0 IU 25(OH)VD3 per calf per day], low-dose group [6 000 IU 25(OH)VD3 per calf per day] and high-dose group [12 000 IU 25(OH)VD3 per calf per day]. The results showed that compared with the control group, the contents of plasma growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor-1, catalase, superoxide dismutase,total antioxidant capacity and immunoglobulin G (IgG) were significantly increased (P<0.05) with the increasing dose of 25(OH)VD3. The content of malondialdehyde decreased with the dosage of 25(OH)VD3 increased (P=0.079). Compared with the control group and the low-dose group, the plasma immunoglobulin A (IgA) content in the high-dose group had an increasing trend (P=0.059). In conclusion,feeding high doses of 25(OH)VD3 to calves before weaning can promote the secretion of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1,improve antioxidant capacity, and enhance immune function.
