Pulsatility of plasma growth hormone and hepatic growth hormone receptor characteristics of broiler chickens divergently selected for abdominal fat content.

British poultry science - 1 Mar 1994

Buyse J, Vanderpooten A, Leclercq B, Berghman L R, Decuypere E

Abstract excerpt

1. Plasma growth hormone (GH) pulsatility and hepatic GH receptor characteristics were compared in experimental lines of meat-type chickens selected for high (HF) or low (LF) abdominal fat content. 2. Mean GH concentration, baseline and amplitude of pulses were slightly, but not significantly, greater in LF chickens. Length and frequency of pulses were similar. 3. LF chickens exhibited higher plasma...
