| 1 | Regulation of gene expression in chickens by heat stress显示文摘High ambient temperatures are a critical challenge in the poultry industry which is a key producer of the animal-based food.To evaluate heat stress levels,various parameters have been used,including growth rates,blood metabolites,and hormones.The most recent advances have explored expression profiling of genes that may play vital roles under stress.A high ambient temperature adversely affects nutrient uptake and is known to modulate the expression of genes encoding for sodium-dependent glucose transporters,glucose transporters,excitatory amino acid transporters,and fatty acidbinding proteins which are responsible for the absorption of macronutrients in the intestine.Various defensive activities are stimulated to protect the cell of different tissues from the heat-generated stress,including expression of early stress response genes coding for heat shock protein(HSP),c-FOS like protein,brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),and neuronal nitric oxide synthase(nNOS);antioxidant enzyme genes such as superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT),and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase(NOX4);and immune-related genes such as cytokines and toll-like receptors(TLRs).The potential role of HSPs in protecting the cell from stress and their presence in several tissues make them suitable markers to be evaluated under heat stress.BDNF and c-FOS genes expressed in the hypothalamus help cells to adapt to an adverse environment.Heat causes damage to the cell by generating reactive oxygen species(ROS).The NOX4 gene is the inducer of ROS under heat stress,which is in turns controlled by antioxidant enzymes such as SOD and CAT.TLRs are responsible for protecting against pathogenic attacks arising from enhanced membrane permeability,and cytokines help in controlling the pathogen and maintaining homeostasis.Thus,the evaluation of nutrient transporters and defense mechanisms using the latest molecular biology tools has made it possible to shed light on the complex cellular mechanism of heat-stressed chickens.As the impacts of heat stress on the above-mentioned aspects are beyond the extent to which the reduced growth performance could be explained,heat stress has more specific effects on the regulation of these genes than previously thought. | Akshat Goel Chris Major Ncho Yang-Ho Choi | 2021 | Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology2021，12，2： | 2 |
| 2 | Embryonic modulation through thermal manipulation and in ovo feeding to develop heat tolerance in chickens显示文摘Healthy chickens are necessary to meet the ever-increasing demand for poultry meat.Birds are subjected to numerous stressful conditions under commercial rearing systems,including variations in the envi-ronmental temperature.However,it is difficult to counter the effects of global warming on the livestock industry.High environmental temperature is a stressful condition that has detrimental effects on growth and production performance,resulting in decreased feed intake,retarded growth,compromised gut health,enhanced oxidative stress,and altered immune responses.Traditional approaches include nutritional modification and housing management to mitigate the harmful effects of hot environments.Currently,broiler chickens are more susceptible to heat stress(HS)than layer chickens because of their high muscle mass and metabolic rate.In this review,we explored the possibility of in ovo manipulation to combat HS in broiler chickens.Given their short lifespan from hatching to market age,embryonic life is thought to be one of the critical periods for achieving these objectives.Chicken embryos can be modulated through either temperature treatment or nourishment to improve thermal tolerance during the rearing phase.We first provided a brief overview of the harmful effects of HS on poultry.An in-depth evaluation was then presented for in ovo feeding and thermal manipulation as emerging strategies to combat the negative effects of HS.Finally,we evaluated a combination of the two methods using the available data.Taken together,these investigations suggest that embryonic manipulation has the po-tential to confer heat resistance in chickens. | Akshat Goel Chris Major Ncho Vaishali Gupta Yang-Ho Choi | 2023 | Animal Nutrition2023，，2： | 0 |
