Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of present study was to investigate the functional crosstalk energy homeostasis between brain and peripheral tissues in neonatal chicks. Specifically, we attempted to create brain chimera chickens using two type of commercial chicken (broiler and layer) which varied in early growth rate and energy metabolism. Brain graft technique revealed that the brain chimera chick exhibited reciprocal growth index, such as feed intake, body weight gain and tissue weight. Furthermore, expression of genes involved in hypothalamic carbohydrate metabolism, amino acid metabolism and immune response were also counter-regulated by brain grafting. These data suggest that brain graft technique is suitable for analysis of crosstalk between brain and peripheral energy metabolism in neonatal chicks.
