A comparison of two sources of methionine supplemented at different levels on heat shock protein 70 expression and oxidative stress product of Peking ducks subjected to heat stress
Summary The aim of this study was to examine the effects of different sources and levels of methionine (Met) on Heat shock proteins HSP70 expression and protein carbonylation in liver, HSP70 expression and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration in intestine under heat stress conditions during summer.

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of different sources and levels of methionine (Met) on Heat shock proteins HSP70 expression and protein carbonylation in liver, HSP70 expression and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration in intestine under heat stress conditions during summer. A total of 720 (4 days old) Peking ducks were placed 20 per pen into six replicates for each of the six treatments with a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement, such that two sources of Met (DL‐methionine [DLM] and DL‐2‐hydroxy‐4‐methylthiobutyrate [HMTBA] were supplemented at three different levels (0.05%, 0.20%, or 0.35% on as‐fed basis respectively). The experiment was divided into a starter (day 4–16) and a grower (day 17–35) period. Diet supplemented with 0.35% Met significantly up‐regulated the HSP70 mRNA expression in duodenum, jejunum and ileum on day 16 and 35 as well as in liver on day 35 (p |
