Protective effect of nano-selenium on mercury-induced prehierarchical follicular atresia in laying hens

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the effect of nano-selenium (nano-Se) in protecting laying hens from mercury (Hg)-induced prehierarchical follicular atresia. Furthermore, the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) was explored to reveal the molecular mechanism. In vivo, 720 Hyline-Brown laying hens we...
