Changes in vasoactive intestinal peptide and tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity in the brain of nest-deprived native Thai hen

Research highlights ► TH-immunoreactive neurons in the nI and ML decrease in nest-deprived hen. ► VIP/DAergic systems regulate incubation behavior in the native Thai chicken. ► VIP neurons in the IH–IN and DA neurons in the nI and ML involve in PRL release.
