Regulation of intracellular protein degradation in the isolated perfused liver of the chicken (Gallus domesticus)

Chromium-yeast supplementation of chicken broilers in an industrial farming system

“…Insulin is known as primary hormone regulating glucose cellular absorption and utilisation. In chickens, insulin is also known to increase the protein synthesis, efficiency of amino acid transport and diminished protein degradation rate [11,12]. The mechanism of insulin action on protein metabolism is not clarified yet, but it was shown by Bigot et al [13] that S6K1 in chickens, known as potent regulator of protein synthesis in mammals, is activated by insulin.…”
