Chicken parathyroid hormone (cPTH) has been reported to stimulate adrenal steroidogenesis and to have unusual potency on traditional PTH target tissues. To evaluate these properties, chicken PTH-( 1-88) has been expressed in Escherichia coli using a plasmid encoding a fusion protein which links together growth hormone, a factor Xa recognition site, and chicken PTH-(1-88). The growth hormone-cPT...

In mammals, the two major sequence variants of U4 small nuclear RNA, U4A and U4B, differ in primary sequence only at nucleotJde positions 88 and 99 (1). In the chicken, molecular cloning and genomic analysis of U4 RNA genes indicated that there are only two genes In the chicken genome that encode U4 snRNA (2). One of these genes codes for the chicken U4B homotog. However, the second gene, named...

Wang Y, Wang Z, Li J, Wang Y, Leung FC. Database for chicken full-length cDNAs. Physiol Genomics 28: 141–145, 2007. First published November 14, 2006; doi:10.1152/physiolgenomics.00097.2006.—The generation of full-length cDNA databases is essential for functional genomics studies as well as for correct annotation of species genomic sequences. Human and mouse full-length cDNA projects have provi...

The effects of replacing pork back fat with brewer's spent grain (BSG) pre-emulsion for physicochemical, textural properties, and sensory evaluations of reduced-fat chicken sausages are evaluated. Control was prepared with 15% pork back fat, and three reduced-fat chicken sausages were formulated with the replacement of 20, 25, and 30% pork back fat with BSG pre-emulsion. The pH level of reduced...

background and objectives: poultry are more susceptible to receiving and spreading of fungal infections in exact condi- tions. the goal of this study was to identify the normal fungal flora and dermatophytes agent of the combs and wattles of adult native chickens in tehran, iran. materials and methods: a total of 150 combs and wattles samples were collected by skin scraping or brushing of the m...

objective: in recent years, amino acids are used in veterinary medicine for many purposes. they injected into hatching eggs to increase chick body weight and performance at hatch, but the adverse effects of amino acids have always been a major concern. there is scant information available about the pathological alterations of amino acids in the chicken embryonated eggs. the objective of this st...

pathogens are an important and significant hazard for human and animal health. in recent years, antibiotics are used to treat different types of infection caused by bacterial agents. in veterinary medicine, antibiotics injected into hatching eggs to eliminate pathogens and prevention of egg transmission of disease, but the adverse effects of drugs have always been a major concern. there is scan...

background:class ii transactivator (ciita) is a dominanttranscriptional element, controlling numerous genes in theimmune system. ciita is expressed in a constitutive pattern inantigen presenting cells although its expression can occur inother cell types. since the revelation of ciita, there have beenconsiderable advances toward understanding its role as anactivator of mhc ii genes in humans and...

This study was designed to evaluate the occurrence of Clostridium difficile in both broiler chicken farms and packed chicken parts sold at market places in Mashhad, the second most popular Islamic pilgrimage city after Mecca in northeastern Iran. The fresh faecal samples were obtained from broiler farms, while the chicken packs were purchased from retail outlets across the city at market places...
