Effect of in ovo ghrelin administration on subsequent serum insulin and glucose levels in newly-hatched chicks

Effect of in ovo ghrelin administration on subsequent serum insulin and glucose levels in newly-hatched chicks

Ghrelin is a regulatory peptide in glucose homeostasis in animal species. Its effect in the avian embryo is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of in ovo ghrelin administration on serum glucose and insulin levels of hatched chicks. A total of 250 fertilized eggs were divide...
