Glucagon and Neuromedin U Suppress Food Intake in Broiler Chicks
Published 2015-10-01“…Several peptides show different effects on food intake between broiler and layer chicks. For example, the central administration of β-melanocyte-stimulating hormone decreased food intake in layer chicks but not in broiler chicks. …”

Effect of Dietary β-1,4-Mannobiose on the Growth of Growing Broiler Chicks
Published 2013-04-01“…We investigated the effects of dietary β-1,4-mannobiose (MNB) on the weights of body, breast muscles, thighs, liver, and abdominal adipose tissue in growing broiler chicks to evaluate whether MNB can be used as a feed additive for broiler chicks. …”

Effects of Dietary Brown Rice and Sake Lees on the Growth Performance and Color of Meat in Broiler Chicks
Published 2024-02-01“…In this study, we examined whether brown rice and sake lees (domestic feed ingredients) could replace corn and soybean meal (major imported feed ingredients) in broiler chick feed. In Experiment 1, 21-day-old broiler chicks were assigned to two groups and fed a corn-soybean- or a brown rice-soybean-based diet for three weeks (3 birds × 4 replicates/group). …”

Effects of Fasting and Refeeding on the mRNA levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor-binding Proteins in Chick Liver and Brain
Published 2018-10-01“…In this study, we examined the effects of short-term (6 h) fasting and refeeding on the mRNA levels of IGFBPs in chick liver and brain. Eighteen 8-day-old chicks were weighed and allocated to three groups on the basis of body weight, and subjected to ad libitum feeding, 6 h of fasting, or 6 h of fasting followed by 6 h of refeeding. …”

Age-Dependent Changes in the mRNA Levels of Neuropeptide Y, Proopiomelanocortin, and Corticotropin-Releasing Factor in the Hypothalamus in Growing Broiler Chicks
Published 2013-10-01“…However, little is known about the age-dependent change of hypothalamic neuropeptides in chicks. In this study, we investigated the age-dependent changes in hypothalamic mRNA levels of neuropeptide Y (NPY, an orexigenic neuropeptide), proopiomelanocortin (POMC, the precursor of anorexigenic neuropeptides), and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF, a possible mediator in the POMC-induced anorexigenic pathway) in growing broiler chicks. …”
