Comparative transcriptome analysis of hypothalamus-regulated feed intake induced by exogenous visfatin in chicks

Abstract Background The intracerebroventricular injection of visfatin increases feed intake. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism in chicks. This study was conducted to assess the effect of visfatin on the feeding behavior of chicks and the associated molecular mechanism. Results I...
