Abstract excerpt
Yuexi frizzled chicken has unique disease resistance and growth performance. Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) and its enzymatic product 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) are recognized as key modulators of inflammatory signaling, immune defense, and viral restriction. However, despite its well-characterized antiviral roles in mammals, the genetic variation of CH25H and its association with growth and development...
