Fig. 5From: Gut microbiota intervention attenuates thermogenesis in broilers exposed to high temperature through modulation of the hypothalamic 5-HT pathwayEffect of gut microbiota intervention on the expression of genes associated with hormone receptors in the liver (A–C) and breast muscle (D–F) under different ambient temperatures. A and D Glucocorticoid receptor mRNA expression level. B and E Thyroid hormone receptor alpha mRNA expression level. C and F Thyroid hormone receptor beta mRNA expression level. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n=8). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001Back to article page
