Gene Expression Analysis of Toll-like Receptor Pathways in Heterophils from Genetic Chicken Lines That Differ In Their Susceptibility to Salmonella enteritidis

Previously conducted studies using two chicken lines (A and B) show that line A birds have increased resistance to a number of bacterial and protozoan challenges and that heterophils isolated from line A birds are functionally more responsive. Furthermore, when stimulated with toll-like receptor (T...
