Changes in the Density of Immunoreactive Avian β-Defensin-3 and -11 in the Hen Uterus in Response to Lipopolysaccharide Inoculation

The aim of this study was to examine the changes in the density of immunoreactive avian β-defensins (ir-avβDs) -3 and -11 in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Healthy laying hens were intravenously injected with LPS (1mg/kg of body weight) at 0, 3, 6 and 12h (n=4) before tissu...
