Ontogenic Profile of Gluconeogenic Key Enzyme Gene Expressions in Embryonic Chicken Liver and Muscle

To elucidate biochemical mechanisms underlining high plasma glucose in chicken embryo, gene expression profile of gluconeogenic key enzymes were characterized. The liver and skeletal muscle were collected from 13- to 21-day embryos (E) (n=8) of layer chicken and the mRNA of pyruvate carboxylase (PC)...
