Chicken Toll-like Receptor 3 Recognizes Its Cognate Ligand When Ectopically Expressed in Human Cells [PDF]

, 2007
Recognition of pathogens by toll-like receptors (TLRs) causes activation of signaling cascades that trigger cytokine secretion and, ultimately, innate immunity.

Proteomics reveals changes in hepatic proteins during chicken embryonic development: an alternative model to study human obesity

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Chicken embryos are widely used as a model for studies of obesity; however, no detailed information is available about the dynamic changes of proteins during the regulation of adipose biology and metabolism.

Chondrodystrophia in chicken embryos.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1926
During the routine examination of chick embryos which had died during incubation, we found in 1923 several embryos exhibiting a striking abnormality resembling the condition known in mammals as Chondrodystrophia foetais (Kaufman).∗ As far as our knowledge of the literature reaches, chondrodystrophia is here reported for the first time in bird embryos ...

Excess caffeine exposure impairs eye development during chick embryogenesis [PDF]

, 2014
Caffeine has been an integral component of our diet and medicines for centuries. It is now known that over consumption of caffeine has detrimental effects on our health, and also disrupts normal foetal development in pregnant mothers.

Phosvitin phosphorus is involved in chicken embryo bone formation through dephosphorylation.

Poultry Science, 2014
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of phosvitin in bone formation in chicken embryos. The yolk P content, P/N ratio and secondary structure of phosvitin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of the tibia, and body length were determined ...

CELL BLOCKADE IN NEWCASTLE DISEASE OF CHICKENS AND CHICKEN EMBRYOS [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1949
The problem of cell blockade or interference has been studied using Newcastle disease of chickens as a model. Embryos may be protected against the uniformly lethal effect of the virus by previous inoculation with ultraviolet-irradiated virus. It was necessary to use 0.5 to 1 mg.

The full-length transcriptional of the multiple spatiotemporal embryo-gonad tissues in chicken (Gallus gallus)

BMC Genomic Data
Objectives Chicken (Gallus gallus), as the most economically important poultry, is a classical and ideal model for studying the mechanism of vertebrate developmental biology and embryology. However, the sex determination and differentiation in chicken is

Temporal transcriptome analysis of the chicken embryo yolk sac

BMC Genomics, 2014
BackgroundThe yolk sac (YS) is an extra-embryonic tissue that surrounds the yolk and absorbs, digests and transports nutrients during incubation of the avian embryo as well as during early term mammalian embryonic development.
