mRNA expression (fold-change relative to -30 d prepartum) of genes associated with transcription factors (PPARA, PPARG and RXRA), receptors (ADORA1, ITGAM, PANX1, TLN1 and VCL) and glucose metabolism (LDHA and SLC1A1) in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) of cows supplemented with inorganic (INO; n = 11) or complexed (AAC; n = 9) trace minerals during the pre- and postpartal period
