Eighty broiler chicks, Naked neck (Na/na) and Hubbard-Pettersen strains, were exposed to acute heat stress (36-37°C), from 2 to 5 days of age, and body weight and cloacal temperature were measured in the beginning and at the end of the heat stress period (5 h). Birds were sacrificed at the end and liver and brain samples were collected and analyzed using Western Blotting and Northern Blotting to quantify Hsp70 levels and mRNA Hsp70 transcript, respectively. The brain tissue had higher […]
