Research Note: Heat stress affects immune and oxidative stress indices of the immune organs of broilers by changing the expressions of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily G member 2, sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter-2, and mitochondrial calcium uniporter

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to determine the mechanisms of heat-induced oxidative stress in the thymus and spleen of broilers. After 28 d, 30 broilers were randomly divided into the control (25°C ± 2°C; 24 h/d) and heat-stressed (36°C ± 2°C; 8 h/d) groups; the experiment lasted for 1 wk. The broilers...
