Effect of Glucose Supplementation on Apoptosis in the <i>Pectoralis major</i> of Chickens Raised under Thermoneutral or Heat Stress Environment

Effect of Glucose Supplementation on Apoptosis in the <i>Pectoralis major</i> of Chickens Raised under Thermoneutral or Heat Stress Environment

Reduced feed intake during heat stress (HS) disrupts glucose homeostasis, thereby resulting in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and triggering apoptosis in chickens. We hypothesize that glucose supplementation could reduce apoptosis in chickens raised under HS. This study comprised 456 28-day-old b...
